Wolfsburg vs Dortmund PREVIEW & PREDICTION 03/11/2018

In the 10th round of the Bundesliga, on Saturday, November 3rd, the VfL Wolfsburg – Borussia Dortmund game will be played. The match will take place on “Volkswagen Arena” starting at 14:30. The “Yellow-Blacks” are trying to stay in leadership.

After the success of the Hannover cup with 2-0, the “wolves” managed for the first time this season to tie two consecutive victories. Mehmedi and Weghorst scored decisively in the 20th and 90th respectively. It was the 5th goal scored by the Dutchman Weghorst this season after the transfer from Alkmaar. It was also for the second consecutive time when John Brooks’s defensive team, who played in all minutes, has left the field empty. However, in front of a truly unleashed offensive, it is going to be tested seriously. On his own, VfL had a modest run with a victory, two draws and so many defeats. Azzaoui, Camacho, Guilavogui and Klaus (injured) are the problems faced by Bruno Labbadia.

On the other hand, the BSE is one of the few teams in Europe that has not yet defeated this season. However, in the middle of this week it was almost a shameful elimination in the cup. In front of Division Two, Union Berlin, Borussia needed 120 minutes to qualify in the extreme, thanks to the goal scored by Reus in the penalty. It was the first time this season when he linked two consecutive matches without winning during the regular time. Restrained in the cup, most likely Alcacer could return to the starting formula, especially as Borussia stops making no mistake before confronting Bayern Munich. Alcacer scored a goal every 18 minutes played! Although Lucien Favre enjoys an excellent start on Borussie’s bench, he failed to impose himself once in the seven games he had to move to Wolfsburg, with only two draws. Akanji, Piszczek and Schmelzer are the only problems in the guest camp.

In the last direct confrontation, disputed in December, the two bands ended undecided, scoring 0-0. It was the only result of a draw in the last 8 straight games. Dortmund was imposed five times during this period.

Probable teams:

Wolfsburg: Casteels (c) – William, Knoche, Brooks, Roussillon – Arnold, Rexhbecaj, Gerhardt – Steffen, Weghorst, Brekalo

Dortmund: Bürki – Hakimi, Toprak, Zagadou, Guerreiro – Witsel, Dahoud – Sancho, Reus (c), Bruun Larsen – Alcacer


PREDICTION: Dortmund to win @ 1.87
