Manchester City vs Dortmund Prediction & Betting tips
The dress rehearsal for the Champions League quarter-final first leg at Manchester City could hardly have gone much worse for BVB. In the trend-setting Bundesliga match against Eintracht Frankfurt, Borussia lost 2-1 and is already seven points behind a starting place for the 2021/22 premier class.
The task will not be any easier on Tuesday evening, after all, the current top favorite is waiting for the black and yellow for the CL triumph in 2021. In view of the performance over the entire season, it is therefore not surprising that before the quarter-final first leg between Manchester City and Dortmund the quotas clearly turn out to be in favor of the English.
Manchester City:
Manchester City is undoubtedly the measure of all things in national and international football at the moment. The team of coach Pep Guardiola still has four titles in front of their eyes. While the final sprint in the Premier League with currently eleven points ahead of city rivals United promises to be purely a matter of form, the Citizens also have excellent chances of winning silverware in the FA Cup (semi-finals) and the League Cup (final).
The Champions League is most important to the Himmelblauen, because ManCity recently failed three times in a row in the quarter-finals and is still waiting for the first handlebar win in their own club’s history. In the current season, the prospects are perhaps brighter than ever, especially since the Guardiola-Elf are still unbeaten in the 2020/21 premier class and have won seven of the eight matches played.
Dortmund:
The anticipation at Borussia Dortmund for the Champions League quarter-finals should actually be huge. After all, the black and yellow have made it back into the round of the last eight for the first time since 2016/17. Nevertheless, on the one hand, the frustration over the lost match in the Bundesliga against Frankfurt at the weekend prevails, and on the other hand, the fear of being shown your own limits against City.
The fact is that BVB’s defense is currently causing a headache. In the past three Bundesliga games, Marwin Hitz, who does not always look good, had to fish the play equipment out of the net eight times. Against Cologne and Frankfurt as well as in both round of 16 games against Sevilla there were two goals against each other.
