How to bet Dortmund vs Tottenham: Top value tips as hosts go for broke
Looking to overturn a daunting three-goal deficit from the first leg at Wembley, Borussia Dortmund have little choice but to go for the jugular against Tottenham, albeit whilst being mindful of conceding an away goal that in all likelihood would end their hopes of turning the tables.
We take a look at a couple of betting angles that could be profitable ahead of tonight’s match, along with a bet builder selection that could turn a huge profit.
Lucien Favre’s side have been out of sorts for some time now and are enduring their toughest run of the season but one thing that hasn’t wavered is their ability to score goals at home.
The Bundesliga leaders - now by virtue of goal difference alone - are unbeaten in 15 league and Champions League matches at home this season, scoring at least twice in all but one of said games. The fact that they drew a blank on their last European night at the Westfalenstadion comes with the caveat of having already all but progressed to the knockout stages by that time too.
The positive for the hosts is that Tottenham are in poor form right now too, needing a somewhat fortuitous Harry Kane penalty and a Hugo Lloris spot kick save to earn a point against Arsenal and ensure they didn’t fall to three consecutive league defeats. Spurs’ record on the road is even worse of late, defeated in each of their last four away games in all competitions and conceding twice in each.
Given Kane’s fitness is improving with every game and Son’s record against Dortmund you’d fancy Tottenham to get that all important away goal - with the Korean international a great price to get it (2.90 with Unibet). However, a safer bet may be to back the hosts to bag their customary over 1.5 goals on home soil, which is a favourable 1.73 with multiple bookmakers.
For those after a bigger price, Son Heung-Min to score in a 2-1 defeat - seeing Tottenham safely through to the quarter-finals in the process - is a whopping 25/1 with using bet365’s ‘Bet Builder’.
