Borussia Dortmund - Bayern München predictions

Borussia Dortmund are considerably weaker than their opponents in this round of the Bundesliga, and a victory for them would be quite a surprise. We wouldn’t bet on it, though – at odds of 4.58, it’s not very likely to happen.

The visiting side should be able to achieve victory in this clash against Team from Dortmund. Bayern München are favourites to claim three points and at 1.68 betting odds they are a good pick for any sensible punter.

Borussia D. left a strong impression in their previous home game against Freiburg . The 4:0 victory itself may have been predictable, but the overwhelming success which they achieved is nothing to scoff at.

The visitors will be high on confidence following a compelling 3:0 victory over Augsburg. They started the game slowly but still managed to pick it up after the break and record a big-margin win.

Team from Dortmund’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.

Bayern Munich don’t seem to have any issues in the goal-scoring department. Their most recent records show they’ve score more than 5 goals over the last 3 matches, so they’re on a bit of a positive trend already.

The hosts’ goal is pretty clear: maintain the strong table position they’ve earned so far, which is currently sitting at number 5th. Climbing up seems extremely unlikely with a difficult matchup such as Bayern Munich coming up.

Though most bookmakers give the visitors a better shot at winning, things didn’t go their way the last time these teams met in the Bundesliga. In fact, Borussia D. snatched a decisive victory last season despite being underdogs.

Before assuming the favoured visitors will win, keep in mind that their lineup has been altered due to several injuries. Aleksandar Pavlović, Mathys Tel, Josip Stanisic will all be missing for various reasons, leaving the coach with a shorter lineup than usual.

While it’s risky as far as betting predictions go, a Draw/Away bet in the Half Time/Full Time market is the best place to find betting value in this match. Simply put, the 4.54 odds outweigh the relatively small implied probability.
