Match Preview – 19:45 Kick-Off at the Westfalenstadion, Dortmund

All things considered, Borussia Dortmund aren’t enjoying the best of seasons. Their weekend hammering by Bayern Munich compounded what’s been a pretty average Bundesliga campaign for Thomas Tuchel’s side and Saturday’s 4-1 defeat has left Dortmund in the 4th spot. However, that defeat was their 1st in 5, so they head into Tuesday’s clash in decent form.

Monaco are enjoying a sensational season both domestically and in the Champions League. The unfancied principality outfit look set to break PSG’s stranglehold over Ligue 1 and they are free-wheeling their way through Europe’s premier competition, happily playing the role of underdogs and outsiders. Monaco have won 8 out of their 9 previous fixtures in all competitions.

Monaco have scored a staggering 88 goals in Ligue 1 this season, a full 23 goals more than the league’s second highest scorers Lyon. And while Dortmund aren’t quite as prolific, they are the Bundesliga’s second highest scorers in 2016/17 with 59 goals. Borussia Dortmund are 1 of 3 teams in the Bundesliga who are unbeaten at home.

Borussia Dortmund vs Monaco Predictions

This one could really go either way and while I expect Monaco to triumph over 2 legs, the outcome of Tuesday’s game at the Westfalenstadion is difficult to call. What we can expect with a relative degree of certainty are goals and lots of them. Both sides are famed for their incisive attacking play, so supporters are in for a treat. Monaco will be desperate to get a vital away goal and I envisage the French league leaders to get at least one. Borussia Dortmund might very well win, but maybe by the odd goal in 5.

William Hill have odds of 17/10 for Borussia Dortmund to win and both teams to score. That looks a very tempting offer. Over 3.5 goals at odds of 21/20 with the same bookie is also worth considering.
