Last weekend, Westphalia celebrated a successful rehearsal in the Bundesliga in a 3-2 victory in Stuttgart. At the same time, Edin Terzic’s team managed to get revenge for the 1-5 home debacle against the promoter in the first round. At the beginning things didn’t look so good with the Swabians – Kalajdzic took the VfB 1-0 in the front (17th). As a result, both teams each gave good opportunities. After the change of sides, the black-yellows took advantage of their chances and took the lead 2-1 with a double strike by Bellingham (47th) and Reus (52nd) within five minutes. While Haaland missed the 3-1 lead (65th), Didavi also failed on the other side with a big chance of equalising (67th). The home team gratefully accepted a missed pass from Morey and then equalised by Didavi 2-2 (78th). BVB again threatened a setback in the battle for the CL places, but a nice shot from the replaced youngster Knauff to 3-2 for Dortmund was the decision (80th). Borussia is only ranked fifth in the table (46 points) and has seven counters less than the fourth Eintracht Frankfurt.
The Terzic team won again after two league games without a win (1 point). BVB has only been able to achieve two full successes from the past five games. The last home game against Frankfurt (1-2) went to Eintracht. Before that, the Black-Yellows were able to remain unbeaten six games in a row (four wins, two draws). With 58 goals in the season, Borussia is the third best attack series in the Bundesliga.
= = = Manchester City = = = Manchester City was defeated for the first time after seven consecutive CL games (five victories). At home BVB celebrated two consecutive home victories against Zenit St. Petersburg (2-0) and FC Bruges (3-0) at the beginning of the season. Two draws followed against Lazio Rom (1:1) and FC Sevilla in the quarter-finals (2:2). Thus there were both bankruptcies in the ongoing competition abroad (1:3 in Italy).
The German vice champion scored 18 goals in the Champions League. Erling Haaland scored more than half (10). Two booths go to Jadon Sancho’s account.
Youssoufa Moukoko, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Marcel Schmelzer, Axel Witsel and Jadon Sancho are injured on Wednesday against Manchester.

Pep Guardiola’s team received Leeds United in the Premier League last Saturday and came into play well. After a few chances to lead, however, the favourite withdrew more and more and was punished with a 1-0 penalty for the promoter before the break (42nd, Dallas). Shortly afterwards Leeds captain Cooper flew off the field for a rough foul match with red (45th +1). In the second 45 minutes the Skyblues put a lot of pressure in excess and only made it 1:1 late through Ferran Torres (76th). The home team kept trying, but the defensive bar was, as in the first leg (1:1), very sure. In the aftermath, the visitors shocked the Citizens and scored the 2-1 victory goal (91st) through Dallas. Man.City is, despite the bankruptcy of still beaten leaders on the island (74 points). The first chaser is city rival United with one league game down and 63 points.
The Guardiola team lost only one of the last five league games and scored 12 points in that period. Manchester has won the last nine away games and has been unbeaten since 10 guest appearances. The only bankruptcy in the foreigner was on the 9th day of the game in Tottenham (0:2). No one is better away in the Premier League and scored more goals (30). The guest defence is also the best in England (8 goals). After 32 days of play, City has the most accurate offensive (67 goals) and the safest defensive row (23 goals conceded).
In the Champions League, the Skyblues have so far won all matches except the away game during the group stage at FC Porto (0:0). The tournaments at Olympique Marseille (3:0), Olympiakos Piraeus (1:0) and Mönchengladbach (2:0) were won. It is striking that the English didn’t concede a goal when they were away from home and only had to concede two goals during the entire CL season.
With 19 goals on European parquet, only two clubs scored more often in the CL. Ferran Torres (4) and Ilkay Gündogan (3) are the best cutters in the city jersey. Sergio Aguero, Kevin De Bruyne, Phil Foden and Gabriel Jesus entered the scoring list twice each time.
Philippe Sandler is the only player to be out on Wednesday due to injury.

We expect a similar close duel between Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City as last week’s first leg on the island. Citizens will travel confidently to Signal Iduna Park. After all, the English are still away unbeaten in the ongoing competition and have not yet conceded a single goal abroad. However, the black and yellow players are still undefeated in their own four walls, but were again unable to win the last two home games. Thanks to the away goal, the Terzic team is still really good in the race for the entry into the CL semi-finals. Theoretically, a 1-0 home win would be enough for BVB for the next round. We trust Westphalia to win their home victory over the Guardiola team and we only tap on a decision in overtime or penalty shootout. Accordingly, we lean a little out of the window in this Champions League tip forecast and recommend 3-way betting on Dortmund wins, where betting odds on average wave around 4.75. However, the sports betting tip should only be played with a small bet.
