Dortmund vs Sturm Graz Prediction & Betting Tips (5 November)

Borussia Dortmund suffered the nightmare that many teams experienced at the Bernabéu in the Champions League. In front at the break 0-2, the Abeilles dominated the ogre Merengue and took their revenge for the final lost at the beginning of June at Wembley, but as often, the white tide, in a hostile atmosphere for the visitors, got the better of the BVB in conceding five goals in thirty minutes and a hat-trick from Vinicius Jr who disguised himself as a superhero after a cataclysmic first half 5-2 defeat. The Germans, like other teams, lost their means in the face of this white pressure and had the misfortune of scoring first in the end... However, they were leaders of this new format after two days following their success on the pitch Club Bruges 0-3 and against Celtic 7-1 .

In the Bundesliga, like last year, BVB is much inferior to its main competitors and the residents of Signal Iduna Park confirmed this by conceding a second defeat in three games against Augsburg 2-1 and on the field of Union Berlin a little earlier 2-1.3 matches, 3 defeats and a small goal scored, this is the terrible record of Sturm Graz in this start of the new Champions League format . Defeats which were written against Brest at Roudourou initially 2-1, for the arrival of Club Bruges 0-1 and against Sporting two weeks ago 0-2. Fortunately, the championship allows the evening visitors to overcome their nerves since they remain on four victories against BM Linz 1-2, Salzburg 5-0, Grazer 5-2 and LASK on the road 1-2. 

Major element of this BVB team, Adeyemi (3 goals in the Champions League) remains injured and could remain close to the medical staff (injured). Recruited this summer via a loan from Man City, Yann Couto is also on the flank like the Belgian crack Duranville and the American crack Reyna. Scorer and passer against Real Madrid, Malen demonstrated to his coach Sahin that he could count on him for the upcoming games. The crack Gittens (3 goals in 3 Champions appearances) is back in the competition and operational this evening like Guirassy (4 goals in the Bundesliga) who feasted on a caviar on Borussia's first goal against Madrid . Once expected to start, Can and Gross (disappointing since his arrival this summer) were finally replaced by Nmecha and Sabitzer against Real Madrid. The first city also delivered a real performance.

Uncertainty around Süle (absent in the championship against Augsburg).OUT for ages, Borkovic will probably be forced to watch the match from his sofa. Same observation regarding the important Slovenian international midfielder Gorenc Stankovic (2 assists in the championship), and the Swiss international Wuthrich (indisputable starter within this team), also injured. Top scorer in the championship with a total of 8 goals, Biereth has still not found the fault in Champions and will be awaited by his fans this evening. We can make the same speech for the Georgian international Kiteishvili (6 goals, 1 assist in the championship), awaiting his first achievement under European skies.
