Dortmund playing a final against Kiel for Champions League spot, says Kovac

Borussia Dortmund will host Holstein Kiel in their final league game on Saturday, fighting for a Champions League spot.
Dortmund climbed from 11th to fifth place since coach Niko Kovac took charge in February through strong recent performances.
The team won six of their last seven matches, scoring 23 goals, including a 4-2 win at Bayer Leverkusen last week.
Kovac expressed that returning to contention feels positive, but emphasized that overcoming the final challenge can often prove to be the most difficult, urging his team to treat the upcoming match as if it were a final.
If Dortmund wins by three goals or more, they guarantee top-four and Champions League qualification, a result that would prevent a major sporting and financial setback.
