Lazio vs Dortmund Prediction & Betting tips
Borussia Dortmund opens its European campaign with an away match in Rome. In the empty Stadio Olimpico, Lazio will be the opponent of Erling Haaland and his teammates.
Lazio:
Lazio Roma put on one of the coveted Champions League tickets reserved for the Italian clubs last season. I Biancocelesti do not have the top form of last season in this new football year for the time being. After four Serie A duels, the counter for the Roman club is only at four points. Last Saturday, Lazio suffered a major defeat at Sampdoria (3-0). After a five-year absence, Lazio is back in the Champions League, but to really make an impression in this, the team will have to show an improvement in form.
For a player, Tuesday’s game will be special. In 2014, Ciro Immobile moved to Borussia Dortmund, but in Germany he could not really live up to his reputation as a goal getter. After a season, Immobile left Westphalia again. He will want to show his old club that he can score easily. Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi still has to deal with a fairly full infirmary. Wesley Hoedt has a good chance of a basic place.
Borussia Dortmund:
Borussia Dortmund can participate in the billion dollar ball by winning second place in the previous Bundesliga season. Thanks to a good scouting policy and a smart transfer policy, there is now a very attractive team in Westphalia. The eye-catcher is of course striker Erling Haaland, but there are more top players under contract with Der BVB. There are the two midfielders, Giovanni Reyna and Jude Bellingham, who, despite their young age, already make many playing minutes. And Jadon Sancho is also a player with exceptional qualities.
On Saturday, Dortmund won the difficult away game against TSG Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga. The yellow-blacks certainly did not play their game, but since the home team also did not have its best day, they did win (0-1). Favre does not have ample choice in his defense for the match in Rome. The necessary players are missing, so midfielder Thomas Delaney will probably have to start in the center of the back.
