Betting tips for Dortmund - Legia match

UEFA Champions League returns after a short break. On Signal Iduna Park, Borussia Dortmund will face Legia Warsaw. Here are the bookmaker odds and our predictions for this game.

• Both To Score / Over 2.5        5/4 (2.25)     

A very important game for both teams. Dortmund have very good chances of securing the first place in this group and consequently get an easier opponent in the first round of the next phase of the competition. From the other hand, Polish champions did not gave up their fight for the third position and place in the UEFA Europa League. Legia should have their chances in Dortmund just like they did at Santiago Bernabeu, the question is: can they finish one of them with a goal? Paradoxically, counter-attacking in the away game can be easier than playing at home. BVB’s defence is not a rock, especially after the departure of Mats Hummels - Dortmund have lost a goal in 7 / 10 of their last home games.
 

• Borussia AH (-2)        23/50 (1.46)        Ladbrokes

Despite decent performances of Legia against Real Madrid, Dortmund is still a clear favourite in this match. The home team cannot let any points slip their hands and we doubt that Legia can withstand the attacks of the German team for the entire game. The win with at least 2 goal margin seems to be quite certain.
 

• Borussia - Over 2,5 team goals    11/25 (1.44)   

The attitude of both teams will be crucial in this match. Will the Dortmund players be satisfied with a small win or will they want to score few goals? Will Legia park a bus and defend with every player - or, just like they did in Madrid - will they want to play the ball? One way or another, we believe that the home team should score at least 3 goals in this match.
