Tottenham Hotspur vs Borussia Dortmund: Match Prediction
The Number Of Clean Sheets For The Londoners Is Impressive. But Looking At Tottenham Hotspur’s Opponents, The Picture Becomes Less Clear. In The Previous Round Thomas Frank’s Side Shut Out Slavia Prague, Who Are The Least Prolific Team Of The Group Stage. Slightly Earlier They Faced Villarreal, Who Are Among The Five Least Scoring Teams. Monaco Also Do Not Shine In Attack. Against Their Nearest Opponent It Is Unlikely They Will Be Able To Deliver The Same Defensive Performance.
Borussia Dortmund Have A 7-Match Scoring Run In The Champions League, And In The Main Stage Of The Current Tournament The Team Scored Less Than One Goal Only Once. Moreover, Dortmund’s Average Scoring Rate Away From Home Is Three Goals Per Game. However, The Visitors Have Conceded Even More On The Road – 10 Goals, Which Is The Second-Worst Figure Among All Participants.
We Are Confident Teams With Such Scoring Records Will Deliver A Goal Fest.
Prediction: Both Teams To Score
