Bologna hosts Borussia Dortmund at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara in a match from the 7th round of the Champions League’s league stage. Now this would be a good moment to stay with us and our Football accumulator tips and predictions.
How are Bologna doing so far in the Champions League? Debutants in the competition, Rossoblu are near the bottom of the standings – 33rd with just two points won. We can say that Bologna’s first Champions League campaign was not what they hoped for. The Italians are not up to the task to rival the best teams on the continent.
During the weekend Bologna prepared for this match with a solid 3-1 win against Monza in the Serie A. The visitors scored an early opening goal, but Rossoblu managed to turn it around. Santiago Castro equalised while Jens Odgaard and Riccardo Orsolini finished the job. Orsolini also made an assist so he was clearly the man of the match.
Borussia Dortmund are 9th in the Champions League’s standings with 12 points on their record. Die Borussen have won four of their six games so far in the competition. They are just one point behind the 8th Lille and the Top 8 – the places that secure a direct qualification for the 1/8-finals.
What’s worrying right now is Dortmund’s current shape. Nuri Sahin’s team suffered three losses in its last three games in the Bundesliga. Since the season in Germany restarted after the winter break, Borussia are unrecognisable – they can’t even win a point.
In their last match Dortmund paid a visit to Eintracht Frankfurt where they condeded a 0-2 loss. It was another poor performance by Sahin’s team.
That’s the Football accumulator tips and predictions for the Champions League fixture between Bologna and Borussia Dortmund. Can the Italians use Dortmund’s poor form in their favour? Let’s wait and see.
