Dortmund – Wolfsburg : Preview & Prediction
Borussia Dortmund host Wolfsburg on the 30th day of the Bundesliga. For BVB, the German championship title seems too far away to hope for anything. Indeed, the Yellow and Black are currently 9 points behind the leader with 5 games to go. However, this team is doing better and is much less inconsistent, Marco Reus’ teammates have been able to move forward after their elimination from the Europa League. Since then, they have beaten Arminia Bielefeld (1-0) and Mainz (0-1) before drawing at FC Cologne (1-1). After the break, BVB were shocked by Leipzig (1-4), but then went on to beat Stuttgart (0-2) last weekend.
As for Wolfsburg, things are going a little better in the league. Indeed, the Wolves are currently 13th in the standings with an 8-point lead over the red zone and their survival is almost assured. Their season has been very irregular, the first months they were in the lead, then a big gap that made them fall, better from February before sinking again during March. The Wolfsburg players thought they had a bad start to April after the heavy defeat against Augsburg (3-0) but they managed to get back on track on the last day with a victory against Arminia Bielefeld (4-0).
Dortmund won 1-3 in the first leg.
Dortmund have won the last 5 meetings with at least 2 goals in each.
Wolfsburg have won just one of their last 10 away games.
Wolfsburg’s last win against Dortmund came in a German Cup match in 2015.
Dortmund have the 2nd best attack with 70 goals scored.
In this match, we should see a very competitive game. On the one hand, Borussia Dortmund must win and hope that Bayern Munich will fail to win and keep their hopes for the title alive. Wolfsburg, on the other hand, have not yet secured their place in the league and will be looking to pick up points. Nevertheless, given the history of the matches, we see Dortmund continuing their unbeaten run. Finally, a Dortmund game with less than 1.5 goals is not a BVB game in view of their offensive strength. That’s why we’re going with Dortmund’s victory with more than 1.5 goals scored in the match.
