Bayer Leverkusen - Borussia Dortmund predictions

The hosts have everything stacking up against them in this match including the betting odds of 2.57. Bayer Leverkusen will indeed find it very hard to beat Borussia Dortmund here but nothing is impossible if you try hard enough.

Borussia D. are not a team that backs down from a challenge and we expect them to give their best in an effort to claim a victory in this match.

The hosts faced off against Wolfsburg in the previous round, which was a relatively favourable matchup considering they also played away. Most bookmakers online expected the game to be relatively close, but we instead saw complete domination by Bayer Leverkusen, who were leading throughout the game and ended on a decisive 1:3 score.

Borussia D. can’t be too happy with their latest Bundesliga result. They were the slightly stronger team in that matchup against Stuttgart and took the lead as expected. Unfortunately, the lead crumbled away in the second half, resulting in a 3:3 draw.

Leverkusen’s recent Bundesliga away games were marked by a lot of concessions – 7 over the last 3 matches, to be exact. Therefore, betting on goals might be a fairly reasonable option here.

Based on Borussia Dortmund’s recent performances, a null result is not very likely. They got on the scoreboard in all 7 of their previous Bundesliga outings and the trend is highly likely to continue.

Team from Dortmund are contending for the top spot in the standings and are currently placed 4th. Though it’s still early in the season, it’s hard to argue with the results of their first few matches.

Even though Leverkusen are the favourites to win this showdown, they’ve been known to have issues fighting Team from Dortmund in the past. For instance, they lost this matchup quite badly last season.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1.57 at 888Sport.
