It’s a miracle that Borussia Dortmund have reached the final. They managed to beat PSG twice in the semi-finals with the same score in both legs (1:0). However, bookmakers can hardly believe the German side will be able to repeat this success in the final against Real Madrid. The odds on Borussia Dortmund to win are at
9/2
.
Real Madrid Betting Odds
The Spanish side is on a 47-game unbeaten run. Well, they lost a Spanish Cup game versus Atlético Madrid but it happened in extra time. Anyway, even if we start counting over from that moment, Real hasn’t been defeated in their last 25 games. No surprise that most of the people believe in the Spanish side. The odds on Real Madrid to lift the trophy are ridiculously low 3/10. The odds on them to win the game in regular time are more interesting.
Real Madrid have scored at least 2 goals in many of their recent games. However, it seems weird to compare the games they have played in the Spanish league and the ones versus their Champions League opponents. Nevertheless, even in this case Real Madrid managed to score at least two goals in half of their knockout stage matches (3 out of 6) and in 5 out of the 6 games they played in the group stage.
Real Madrid have a perfect offensive line. However, their defence isn’t flawless. Their opponents have managed to score at least a goal in 9 out of the 12 games the Spanish side has played in the Champions League this season.
If attacking actions are implied, it’s likely that teams will have a chance to score in both halves. In the case of Real Madrid it’s happened only in half of the games they played in the knockout stage, though. The matches of Borussia Dortmund in these stages have seen the teams scoring in both halves in 4 out of 6 cases. Only the games versus PSG were an exception.
Borussia Dortmund Betting Odds
This season hasn’t been simple for Borussia Dortmund. They finished 5th in the German Bundesliga. However, they have already qualified for the Champions League next season as this year 5th position allows them to do so. Borussia Dortmund surprisingly beat PSg in the semi-finals but bookmakers don’t believe in the German side in the final. However, they may surprise everyone again. This match will be a swan song for Marco Reus and Mats Hummels, after all.
Let’s be honest, Borussia Dortmund had a quite simple knockout stage path. At least compared to Real Madrid. PSV weren’t the opponents some should be afraid of. Atlético Madrid have been unstable recently. Only PSG were strong rivals. Nevertheless, Borussia have proved that they can play well in defence. It means that we can believe that even if the German side loses, Real Madrid won’t have a huge lead.
The knockout stage has seen Borussia Dortmund scoring over 1 goal only in 2 games out of the 6 the German side has played. However, they’re likely to concede at least a goal in the final match so they will need to score. Borussia Dortmund have Niclas Füllkrug and Karim Adeyemi in the squad along with Marco Reus and Jadon Sancho. Edin Terzić has already claimed that his side here’s to win. Thus, they will have to show all they can in attacking actions.
There’s another interesting option to consider. If we suppose that Borussia Dortmund is capable of enduring 90 minutes then there’s a question how the game ends. It’s doubtful that in this case it’s going to be easy for Real Madrid to crack the Borussia’s defensive line in 30 minutes of extra time. In this case, everything may be decided on penalties.
Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
It’s hard to question the fact that Real Madrid is a very strong team, experienced in the international competitions. And particularly in decisive games. This is why there’s still little doubt that they will win another Champions League trophy.
However, there’s always a chance for a miracle to happen in a European Cup final. Liverpool winning the 2005 final in Istanbul. Penalties in the final between Manchester United and Chelsea in 2008. The games between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid in 2014 and 2016. Against all odds, Borussia Dortmund can surprise everyone. Prediction:
Real Madrid
Pachuca
Arsenal
Crystal Palace
Southampton
Liverpool
Newcastle
Brentford
Atalanta
