Chelsea vs Borussia Dortmund: Top Free Betting Tips

Following a much-awaited victory in Premier League, Chelsea faces Borussia Dortmund in the second leg of the Round of  16 in UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, 7 March. The Black and Yellows have got the back of a brilliant winning streak in all competitions before this game.

Match Result Prediction: Borussia Dortmund to Win

Chelsea has finally ended their six-match winless streak in the previous attempt. The Blues have also won only two of the previous five home games, together with two defeats and a draw. On the other hand, Borussia Dortmund has an impressive spell of successive ten victories before this game. The Black and Yellows have also won the home leg against the Blues in the tournament. So we see BVB much more confident to confirm a victory in this game.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

Chelsea were unable to find the target in the away leg against Dortmund and they have also struggled with scoring form recently. The team has failed to hit the target in three of the previous four attempts while allowing goals in three of them. Borussia Dortmund’s scoring strength won’t be in doubt following their winning streak. BVB have also claimed three clean sheets in the last five attempts. Therefore, we don’t see this game featuring a BTTS  pattern at the end.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-0 to Borussia Dortmund

Despite struggling with consistency at home, Chelsea has not allowed more than one goal in any of the previous five hosting duels. Borussia Dortmund has been performing quite well in the Bundesliga with multiple goals per game but that has not been the case in the  European competition. The Black and Yellows have not scored more than once in the previous four UCL outings. Hence, we predict a narrow lead of 1-0 for the BVB in this game, the same as the first leg against Chelsea.

Chelsea vs Borussia Dortmund: Form, Recent Games, and News

Chelsea Preview

After consecutive three defeats, the Blues earned a tight victory of 1-0 in the last game against Leeds United. Chelsea has earned only nine victories in the 25 Premier League games and are present in the middle of the table. The manager Graham Potter will have a list of seven unfit players before this game and will continue to juggle the squad in their absence.

Their trip to Signal Iduna Park saw them end their six-match winless streak. For the optimist, the key takeaway from that meeting was their creativity in front of the goal. The Blues finished with 8 shots on target to the hosts' two. For the pessimist, their profligacy in front of the goal remains an issue. Chelsea faithful will want to hope for the best as it did require 13 goal attempts from across the park to get on the scoreboard and will hope a similar return is not required this time around.

Borussia Dortmund Preview

Scoring two goals in the first half of the last game, the Black and Yellows earned a 2-1 victory in the previous attempt against Leipzig. A total of 16 wins and one draw has made the team stand in the second position in Bundesliga with equal points to the top-positioned Bayern Munich. Six players are on the injury list while Julian Ryerson will miss the game due to a yellow card suspension. 

As it stands, Der BVB are on a dream sequence. They went into the winter break after suffering successive defeats in the Bundesliga but have not looked back since. Terzic's men are on a ten-match winning streak across all competitions. Their form has followed them on the road as well, where half of these results have been added to their ranks.
