How to Bet Borussia Dortmund vs Frankfurt

Borussia Dortmund Owns a Scary Attacking Unit

Last season, Borussia Dortmund finished fifth in the Bundesliga but reached the UEFA Champions League final, in which they put up a very good fight against Real Madrid, eventually losing 2-0.

Niclas Fullkrug and Donyell Malen finished as the team’s top scorers in all competitions after scoring 15 goals each. The bad news is that Fullkrug won’t return because he moved to London to play for West Ham United. The good news is that Mallen will return and will be accompanied by a scary unit.

Against all odds, the Black and Yellows managed to sign Serhou Guirassy, who last season scored 28 goals for Stuttgart. Only Harry Kane from Bayern Munich scored more with 36. They also signed Maximilian Beier, who scored 16 goals for Hoffenheim. He’s 21 and six feet tall.

As if that weren’t enough, the unit also includes Sebastian Haller, Julian Brandt, Karim Adeyemi, and Julien Duranville.

Dortmund, who are set at a -145 soccer betting line for this match, have already been tested thanks to the first round of the DFB Pokal and they had no trouble beating FC Phonix Lubeck 4-1. Brandt and Duranville were among the scorers, while Guirassy and Haller didn’t play. They managed to score four goals without them!? That’s scary.

Finally, keep in mind that last season, the Black and Yellows averaged 2.1 goals at home. And again, now they have the Golden Boot runner-up!

Bet This Pick: Borussia Dortmund Team Total Over 1½ (-189)

Frankfurt Also Invested in Its Attacking Unit

Borussia Dortmund wasn’t the only team that spent some money on bringing in reinforcements for the attacking unit. After a decent season, Frankfurt is ready to fight for a spot in the top four, for which they signed three attacking players.

First, Hugo Ekitike from PSG. The 22-year-old is ready to lead the way after learning a thing or two from Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi. Second, they signed Can Uzun from Nuremberg. Last season, he scored 16 goals. Finally, Krisztian Lisztes, who last season played for Ferencvaros and scored eight goals.

Like Borussia Dortmund, Frankfurt already played an official match. The Eagles defeated Eintracht Braunschweig 4-1 in the first round of the DFB Pokal. Ekitike was the Player of the Match after scoring a brace. Last season, Frankfurt averaged 1.2 goals per game when playing on the road. That’s not bad, but if they want to fight for a spot in the top four, that number must improve.

Summing up, Frankfurt has enough to score and contribute to the total going over, but not to pull off the stunner, making the following game prop the best bet for the match:

Bet this Prop: Borussia Dortmund Wins and Both Team to Score (+185)
