Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich Odds
Game Preview
The Millionaires open a new leaf, as they had a complete roster change, letting go of several of their starters and replacing them with talented youngsters from all over Europe. The latest addition was Joey Veerman from PSV.
They didn’t play badly during the preseason, with their last two games ending with high efficiency. First of all, they faced Arsenal at the Emirates Cup, where they won 2-3. After that, they hosted Roma in Dortmund, and the match concluded in a 2-2 tie.

Bayern had 5 straight wins in the preseason, though we have to add that Vincent Kompany didn’t use his best team all the time. Simply, there’s no need to push 100% now, and the Belgian manager knows that.
Meanwhile, what is a problem for the Bavarians is Jamal Musiala’s condition. He collapsed twice on the pitch recently, which could be a long-term issue for the team from Munich. After all, he is the primary playmaker of the unit.
Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich Head to Head
Bayern won the last 10 matches against Borussia; Dortmund won 1, and there were three ties along the way. 8 games saw either over 2.5 goals or both teams netting, while 7 ended with 4 or more hits. Bayern won both games last year, 2-1 at home and 2-3 on the road.
Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich Predictions
We pick high efficiency here, which is over 3.5 goals. Borussia plays open-minded football, and they will attack at home to beat their biggest rivals. This is a perfect opportunity for something like that. Meanwhile, the Bavarians have one of the best offenses in the world, and that should lead to high efficiency.
