Borussia Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich In Matchup Of Top Two Teams!
Why Bet On Dortmund at +254
Dortmund is in second place in the Bundesliga standings with 57 points. Borussia has tallied 74 goals while allowing 33 to sit at +41 in goal differential. Dortmund is also on fire, having won two straight matches since the re-start of the Bundesliga while claiming victory in seven of their last eight matches overall. Dortmund picked up a solid 2-0 win over Wolfsburg on Saturday as Raphael Guerreiro and Achraf Hakimi found the back of the net. Borussia has scored six goals in their last two matches while not allowing a single goal in either outing.
Borussia has a ton of talent too. Sancho has scored a team-high14 goals and added 16 assists in 25 matches this season. Marco Reus has added 11 goals in 19 matches and young superstar Haaland has added 10 goals in just 10 games. Hazard has 12 assists for Borussia and Hakimi has added another 10 assists. Reus and Zagadou are injured for this match while Schulz and Witsel are both questionable.
Why Bet On Bayern at -119
Bayern is in first place in the Bundesliga standings with 61 points. Munich has scored a league-high 80 goals while allowing just 28 to sit at +52 in goal differential. Bayern has won seven straight matches while going a near-perfect 9-1-0 over their last 10 matches overall. Munich comes into this affair off a resounding 5-2 smackdown win over Frankfurt on Saturday that saw Leon Goretzka, future Hall of Famers, Thomas Müller and Robert Lewandowski, Alphonso Davies and Martin Hinteregger all score once.
Bayern has scored seven goals in their last two matches combined while allowing just two goals along the way. Lewandowski leads Bayern – and the entire Bundesliga – in scoring – with a whopping 27 goals in 25 matches while Gnarby has added 11 goals and 9 assists. Coutinho has contributed eight goals and Muller, seven goals. Sule, Coutinho and Tolisso are injured for this matchup. Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago Alcantara has also been ruled out of Tuesday’s match after missing Saturday’s affair.
Expert Analysis and Prediction
Bayern Munich might be the top team in the Bundesliga and they might be favored in this highly anticipated pairing, but I love the way Dortmund is playing right now and I believe they can and will take care of business at home in this one to get the huge upset.
I know Bayern recorded an emphatic 4-0 win against Dortmund back on November 9, but these two rivals have alternated wins and losses over their last five meetings with the home team winning each time. Dortmund has won two straight at home in this series including a 2-0 win on August 3 and a 3-2 win on Nov. 10, 2018 and I’m banking on the home team getting it done in this insanely huge matchup while these two easily top the 3-goal Over/Under total.
