Borussia Dortmund vs Lille: betting odds 4 Mar 2025

The first leg of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League Round of 16 between Borussia Dortmund (Germany) and Lille (France) will take place on March 4 at Signal Iduna Park. Borussia Dortmund vs. Lille: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Borussia Dortmund

The German club successfully advanced from the previous round, virtually securing their place in the Round of 16 after a 3-0 away victory over Sporting. The return leg ended in a goalless draw, which snapped Borussia's nine-match scoring streak in the Champions League. Although the team had a chance to score, Serhou Guirassy missed a penalty. Notably, the forward had scored in five consecutive Champions League matches prior to this game. Dortmund has reached the Round of 16 for the third consecutive season.

  • At least three goals have been scored in 5 of the club's last 6 Champions League matches.
  • Borussia has not lost in 5 of their last 7 Champions League games (4 wins, 1 draw).
  • In 5 of their last 6 home matches in this tournament, the team has not conceded more than one goal.

Predicted lineup for Borussia Dortmund (4-5-1)

Gregor Kobel – Daniel Svensson, Nico Schlotterbeck, Waldemar Anton, Ramy Bensebaini – Karim Adeyemi, Marcel Sabitzer, Julian Brandt, Pascal Gross, Emre Can – Serhou Guirassy.

Midfielder Felix Nmecha is injured.

Lille

Seventh place in the overall stage standings allowed Bruno Genesio's side to avoid the additional burden of playoff matches. The French team did not lose in 6 of their 8 matches in the main round (5 wins, 1 draw), scoring 17 goals, the third-best result among the top-8 clubs. However, Lille's defense lacked reliability, with the team conceding goals in six consecutive Champions League games. Notably, the club has reached the Round of 16 for the third time in its history but has never progressed further.

  • Both teams scored in Lille's last 6 matches in this European competition.
  • Away from home, the French team has not won in 5 of their last 7 Champions League matches (1 draw, 4 losses).
  • In 5 of their last 6 away games in this tournament, the club has scored against opponents.

Predicted lineup for Lille (4-5-1)

Lucas Chevalier – Gabriel Gudmundsson, Alessandro, Bafode Diakite, Thomas Meunier – Ngalayel Mukau, Ayoub Bouaddi, Hakon Haraldsson, Remy Cabella, Nabil Bentaleb – Jonathan David.

Forwards Edon Zhegrova, Osame Sahraoui, and defenders Samuel Umtiti and Tiago Santos will miss the match due to injuries.

Borussia Dortmund vs. Lille: Match Prediction

Niko Kovac's side did not concede a single goal in their encounter with Sporting, although the Germans had failed to keep a clean sheet in their previous three Champions League matches. It is worth noting that the Portuguese team had significant squad issues, which affected their attacking play. Borussia played four home matches in the main round of this tournament and only managed to shut out one opponent, Sturm, who scored fewer goals than just two other teams in the overall stage.

Lille failed to score against Sporting in the first round but then went on a seven-match scoring streak in the Champions League. Even defensive powerhouses like Liverpool, Juventus, and Atletico suffered against the French side during this stretch. Away from home in the Champions League, the club has scored in 10 of their last 12 matches. Therefore, I believe bookmakers underestimate the visitors' chances of scoring.
