Lazio vs Borussia Dortmund
UEFA Champions League
Date: Tuesday, 20 October 2020
Kick-off at 20:00 UK/ 21:00 CET
Venue: Stadio Olimpico (Rome).

Lazio is pitted together with Club Brugge and Zenit, but the real problems will be from the German giants Borussia Dortmund. And at home, they will start the CL group fixture facing the strongest squad in the mix this season in Group F.

The host is playing on the back of a three-game winless streak in the Italian league. They will host after a 3-0 loss on the road against Sampdoria last time out in the Serie A. However, all three of those winless games have seen both teams score, which opens the door for some action in the game.

Lazio vs Borussia Dortmund Head-to-head (h2h)

• The teams have met twice in the 1995 Europa League season.
• Both teams have a win each, favoring the hosting side at each fixture.

Lazio vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction

It has to be noted that the teams last met in 1995, which is a long time. The dynamics of both teams have changed in that long time period. Taking into account their league growth, both competitions had their participation in the final four of the Champions League last term.

Since the last season champions are from the German side, Borussia Dortmund stands a slight edge over the host in the clash. Besides, the BVB has been a close contender for the last season champions in the Bundesliga.

Lazio is not to be taken lightly, and their ground advantage also plays an important role in the fixture in the champions’ league group stage. However, the winless streak in their schedule does hold them back for the upcoming match.

Besides, Dortmund has a strong squad known for their lethal attack in the middle. We can expect a high-scoring affair in the clash, which is why backing the tip for over 2.5 goals will probably be the best bet for the punters to yield decent returns.

The match is sizing to be an away win in full-time, but breaking the home team’s defense will not likely be a walk in the park for the visiting side. Hence, the draw no bet over Borussia Dortmund will probably serve the purpose for the punters in the encounter.

Lazio vs Borussia Dortmund Betting tips

• Over 2.5 goals @ 1.50 (1/2).

• Draw no bet: Dortmund @ 1.50 (1/2).
