We said: Greuther Furth 1-2 Borussia Dortmund
Despite Dortmund being expected to stroll to a comfortable win on paper, we do not see this being such an easy victory for the visitors here. The hosts will be full of desire to pick up an impressive result and the visitors displayed little character in their defeat last weekend, whilst the expected absence of Haaland adds to a lengthy injury list, so although Dortmund should come out winners, it is likely to be a tighter game than many expect.Data Analysis
