Match Preview
It hasn’t been the most straightforward season for Borussia Dortmund this term, as the German side have been unable to compete with the sides at the top of the standings. Therefore, their best chance of a major piece of silverware this term will come in the form of the Champions League. But, they are in an almighty struggle to secure their spot in the next round.
Dortmund could only play out a draw in the first match against PSV, despite going into that showdown as the clear favorites in the betting. The German side opened the scoring after 24 minutes through Donyell Malen, but they were pegged back early in the second half following a Luuk de Jong penalty.

The draw at least extends Dortmund’s unbeaten record against PSV in Europe to three matches, but two fixtures over that period have ended in draws. It could also be worth noting that both teams have scored in each of the last three. There will be confidence within the Dutch side ahead of this second leg, as they are unbeaten in their last six Champions League matches.
Dortmund have also been a very challenging team to beat in the competition across recent seasons. That is highlighted by the fact that they are without a loss in their last 23 matches after going into the break with a lead. However, one of these sides must exit the competition on Wednesday.
Borussia Dortmund vs PSV Prediction
This should be an entertaining second leg between these sides, and both teams team to score looks a solid angle based on the trends. But, we expect Dortmund to make their home advantage count and book their spot in the next round of the tournament.
