Borussia Dortmund vs Holstein Kiel
Germany – DFB Pokal
Date: Saturday, 1 May 2021
Kick-off at 19:30 UK/ 20:30 CET
Venue: Signal Iduna Park (Dortmund).
After getting eliminated from the Champions League this season, Borussia Dortmund will try their luck in the DFB Pokal Cup in Germany. The home team has won their last three matches in Bundesliga with a clean sheet in the recent two games.
The BVB will return home after a 0-2 win on the road against the likes of Wolfsburg last time out in their schedule. They had to defeat Monchengladbach with a 0-1 scoreline away from home to reach the semi-finals of the tournament.
In the meantime, Holstein Kiel came into the semi-finals after a successful 0-3 win on the road against the likes of RW Essen in the previous DFB clash in their schedule. They will visit on the back of a 1-1 draw on the road against Nurnberg last time out in 2. Bundesliga.
The away team is on their seventh consecutive trip across all major competitions in their overall schedule this season. With so many away games in a row, the players will be exhausted and we can expect a slow game at Signal Iduna Park for the weekend clash.
With Borussia Dortmund at the helm, expect a high-scoring affair in ninety minutes. The host has been ruthless against most of the fellow Bundesliga side. So, they will likely go with all guns blazing against a second-tier team in the semi-finals of the DFB Pokal fixture.
There is no doubt that the match is sizing to be a home win in full-time. The tip for Borussia Dortmund to win with a -1 handicap will probably be the best bet for the punters. Besides, the tip for over 9.5 corners 2-way and over 2.5 goals in the clash will also come in handy to yield decent returns in the probable action-packed game on Saturday.
