Bayern Munich-Borussia Dortmund Betting Preview: Expect attacks to be on top at the Allianz Arena

Feb 27, 2013 10:17:00 AM

As the Bavarians run away with the league, Jurgen Klopp's men will want to bring them down a peg or two in tonight's cup clash & Al Hain-Cole does not foresee a shortage of goals

Currently trailing Bayern Munich by 17 points in the Bundesliga, defending champions Borussia Dortmund have the chance to at least get one over on the runaway league leaders when they go head-to-head in tonight’s DFB-Pokal cup clash.

Unfortunately, that task is easier said than done for Jurgen Klopp's men, as they are facing one of the form teams in Europe at the moment.

With eight consecutive victories under their belt, the hosts are firm 8/11 (1.73) favourites with Bet Victor to secure an astonishing 29th win in 34 competitive games this campaign.

However, with five wins and just one defeat in the last seven meetings, die Schwarzgelben have enjoyed the upper hand against their rivals recently, and may be confident of upsetting the odds at 19/5 (4.80).

The corresponding league encounter at the Allianz Arena finished in a 1-1 draw earlier in the season, and you can get odds of 31/10 (4.10) on this one finishing all square after 90 minutes.

Jupp Heynckes’ side boast a devastating attack, having scored in every single match this season, while the visitors have only been denied once in 34 fixtures.

With a bounty of attacking talent on display at either end of the pitch, it would be amazing if either defence managed to maintain a clean sheet this evening, so odds of 13/20 (1.65) look too tempting to miss on both teams hitting the back of the net.

Based on current form, it is hard to see how this Bayern team can possibly be improved, but one man that is supposedly high up on their summer shopping list is Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski.

The Poland international has no doubt caught the Bavarians’ eye after consistently putting them to the sword over the past couple of seasons, having scored five goals in the last four encounters between these two teams.

After having the final say in three of the last four meetings, the 24-year-old offers unbeatable value at 7/1 8.00) to score last in this match.
