Dortmund vs Manchester United Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in Pre-season Friendly on Monday, 31 July 2023.
Borussia Dortmund missed out on a huge chance the last season, as they fumbled the league title on the last match-day. They had the lead in their hands, and dropped points, which led to arch-rivals Bayern Munich once again lifting that trophy.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are going through a period of change. The arrival of Erik ten Hag has revived the club, and they are determined to not let this decade be all about their arch-rivals Manchester City. The Devils need to deliver a great campaign at any cost this season.
Interestingly, Der BVB have a 100% winning record against this rival in h2h clashes. As a matter of fact, they kept clean sheets in all but one meeting as well.
Dortmund have been in great form all through 2023, and had been so for the better part of the previous campaign as well. They were in such good shape, that it seemed almost like a given that they would secure the German league title.
It is of significance that they lost a total of just three times in all competitions since November of 2022, and the three defeats came against Bayern Munich, Chelsea, and Leipzig.
On the other hand, the Devils lost their last two friendly games, against Arsenal, and against Wrexham – a team from the lower divisions. It’s safe to say that their confidence level is not that high now.
Moreover, they have a poor h2h record against this opponent as well. In fact, the latest meeting between the two teams ended in a 1-4 win for the German side.
By the looks of things, a win is expected for Borussia Dortmund.
Der BVB have been in such great form for a long time, that they are a legitimate threat for ending the Bayern monopoly in the Bundesliga this season. They had come really close the previous campaign as well.
Going on, they lost just thrice in all competitions in the past nine months, and these losses came against titans like Bayern Munich, Chelsea etc.
On the other hand, Manchester United are on a two-game losing streak – and one of these defeats even came against a side like Wrexham – who are from the lower divisions.
In addition, the Red Devils also have a 100% losing record in h2h meetings so far, and even lost the latest game against the German side 1-4.
As things stand, a win is expected for Borussia Dortmund this Monday. Odds for the same are placed at 3.00.
