Borussia Dortmund - Köln betting tips and odds

Borussia Dortmund are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Köln winning, though.

From the current viewpoint, the situation is unambiguous. Considering the strength of Team from Dortmund and the 7.00 odds given to Köln to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a remarkable upset.

Team from Dortmund let a relatively straightforward victory slip through their fingers in the previous round. They were the favourites and leading at halftime, but their opponents Schalke 04 equalised in time for a tied game.

It’s fair to say Köln fans were shocked to see their team lose the previous Bundesliga game. At 1.70 betting odds to win, they were expected to enjoy a walk in the park against The Billy Goats-LAST_ROUND_AWAY. Instead, Koln suffered a devastating 0:2 blow.

Borussia D.’s attackers have been seeing a lot of success lately, even in away matches. For instance, they scored 11 times during the course of their previous three away games.

Earlier in the season, Borussia D. lost an away game against Köln, though it was with a relatively small goal difference. Most betting predictions agree that things will go differently this time, especially with the 1.52 odds for a home win in mind.

With limited means at their disposal, both teams will have to make do with shortened rosters. We’re referring to the fact both teams suffered strings of injuries, rendering a good chunk of both squads unavailable for this match. Mate Morey, Julian Brandt, Youssoufa Moukoko, Karim Adeyemi, Abdoulaye Kamara, Julien Duranville will not be playing for the hosts, while Jan Thielmann, Sebastian Andersson, Mark Uth, Luca Kilian, Kristian Pedersen, Florian Dietz, Rijad Smajic will be missing on the visiting side.

For better or worse, the Under 3.5 Goals is possible the best course of action for this match. It’s not exactly an exciting offer and the returns can’t be called amazing, but the value is strong enough to warrant a quick punt.
