Leverkusen vs Borussia Dortmund 11.09.2021

After barely missing out on Champions League qualification last season, Leverkusen have jumped off the blocks with a hot start to the season. A 1-1 draw on opening day at Union Berlin has been followed up by two terrific wins in which they put 4 goals at the back of the net in both games to move up to 2nd on the log

Dortmund have been solid on their part. Their attack hasn’t lost a beat with 9 goals scored in their three games. They however haven’t kept in all 3 games which is a cause for concern for new coach Marco Rose

These teams always have a go at one another and we expect nothing less in this game. There will be plenty of attacking either end and we fancy the game to yield quite a few corners. 4 of their last 5 H2H have had 9 or more corners and we are backing a repeat of the same here

Main tip: Over 8.5 Corners (go to tip details)
