Our prediction for the match Borussia Dortmund vs Sturm Graz
“The Yellow and Blacks” seriously lost their positions in the Bundesliga last season. The team, which almost won the “silver salad bowl”, took only 5th place in the final table in the spring. At the same time, they reached the final of the previous draw of the Champions League. “The Black and Whites” finally achieved the goal of recent years, displacing Red Bull Salzburg and becoming champions of Austria (for the first time after a very long pause).
Now Ilzer’s wards are fighting to defend their status as the number 1 force in the local Bundesliga. There is currently a tough race looming with Vienna Rapid. “The Bumblebees”, having appointed Nuri Şahin as head coach and having renewed the squad, are surprising with extremely weak statistics on the away field, even though they show almost 100% results at their native Signal Iduna.
The Germans compensated for their failures on the inner stage with success in the Champions League. There they started with an away 3-0 score on the field of Brugge and a home 7-1 result in the meeting with Celtic. They also scored twice in Madrid, but Real beat them with a 5-2 score in the end of the game (with a hat-trick scored by Vinícius). The representative of Graz has only lost so far: there happened a 1-2 failure in the struggle with Brest, a 0-1 misfire in the confrontation with Brugge and a 0-2 result with Sporting.

One can’t believe that “the Black and Whites” will suddenly improve the performance. We bet on Şahin’s team to win with “a -2.0 goal handicap” (odd: 1.8).
