Frankfurt vs Borussia Dortmund 08.01.2022

Frankfurt are enjoying a remarkable season. A 1-0 win over Mainz at this venue just before the break ensured they remained in the hunt for European places. They are in 6th place on 27 points, just a stone’s throw away from surprise packages Freiburg who are third on 29 points.

Borussia Dortmund missed a chance to keep pace with runaway leaders Bayern Munich as they lost 3-2 away at Hertha Berlin in their last match before the break. This allowed Bayern to open up a 9 point cushion at the top, as they had outclassed Wolfsburg in their last match.

Dortmund are under immense pressure and they have no choice but to throw caution to the wind and go on attack here. They have one of the most prized possessions in Europe right now in the form of their striker Erling Haaland. He failed to score at Hertha but he rarely ever goes on a prolonged goal drought. Having rested enough, we fancy him to try and resuscitate Dortmund’s campaign by scoring a goal anytime here.
