Match Preview

It has been a mixed start to the season for Borussia Dortmund. The German giants have been in excellent form in the Champions League to this point, but that strong form has failed to transfer to their domestic efforts so far this season.

Dortmund come into this final round of matches before the winter break sitting down in eighth in the Bundesliga standings. They have won just once across their last five, and they have played out draws in each of their last three. That poor run has seen a gap of five points open up between themselves and the Champions League spots.

Wolfsburg brings the better form to the table this weekend after winning four of their last five. However, it is worth noting that their winning sequence was ended with a defeat in the previous round. But, a win on Sunday would see them go into the winter break ahead of Dortmund.

Wins in this fixture have been a rarity for Wolfsburg, as they have won just two of their last 19 competitive meetings with Dortmund. But, it could be worth noting that Dortmund have failed to win on their last three trips to the Volkswagen Arena.

Away form has been a major concern for Dortmund this weekend, as they have picked up just two points from their six matches on the road this season. That marks their worst run of form on the road in 33 years.

Wolfsburg have a fine home record that is worth supporting this weekend. The German side have won each of their last two in front of their home fans, which marks a return to their best form after winning just twice in their previous 16 home matches before the start of the winning sequence.


Wolfsburg vs. Borussia Dortmund Picks

At the prices, it is well worth taking on Dortmund due to their poor record on the road this season. Therefore, the best value in the market could be found in the form of a home victory on Sunday.
