🥅 Goals stats: Expect goals at both ends
Goals have been plentiful in Dortmund’s and PSV’s games this season, with both sides possessing attacking strengths and defensive weaknesses.
Dortmund have been convincing in front of goal in recent home matches, scoring an average of 2.29 goals per match across their last seven games at Signal Iduna Park. However, Edin Terzic will be concerned with his side’s defensive performances, with his men conceding an average of 1.57 goals per game along this run. It is worth noting that both teams have scored in eight of Dortmund’s last nine home fixtures.
PSV displayed their attacking capabilities in the group stages of this competition, scoring an average of 1.33 goals per away match. Despite this, the visitors did struggle defensively, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per away fixture. As a result of this, both teams have scored in five of PSV’s seven games in this competition so far.
Both teams scored in the first leg, and the bookies are offering a price of 1.45 for the same to happen again here.
Predictions:
⚽ Both teams to score @ 1.45
🎯 Shooting stats: A busy night for PSV’s keeper
Dortmund have registered their fair share of shots on target at home in the Champions League this season, registering an average of 5.67 accurate shots across their three home fixtures. The hosts have also looked sharp at home domestically, registering an average of 6.8 shots on target per game across their last five home league matches.
One player that has contributed greatly to this is Donyell Malen. The Dutch forward has looked dangerous in this competition, finding the target an average of 2.1 times per game so far. Malen, who scored in the first leg, will be hopeful of capitalising on a PSV defence which allowed an average of 4.66 shots on target per away game in the group stages.
Dortmund registered five shots on target in the first leg, with Malen having four of them. A price of 1.53 is available for Dortmund to hit the target five or more times, with value of 1.36 available for Malen to contribute to this tally at least once.
Predictions:
⚽ Borussia Dortmund to have 5+ shots on target @ 1.53
⚽ Donyell Malen to have 1+ shots on target @ 1.36
🚩 Corners stats: Expect plenty of Dortmund corners
Dortmund have taken plenty of corners in this season’s Champions League, forcing an average of 5.43 corners per game thus far. This average has been even higher at Signal Iduna Park, with the hosts taking an average of 5.67 corners per home match.
Dortmund will be facing a PSV side that have conceded many corners when playing away from home in Europe this season, facing an average of 4.33 corners per away game.
Dortmund took four corners when they faced PSV in Eindhoven, and value of 1.25 is available for Edin Terzic’s side to at least match this tally here. Also, an excellent price of 1.57 is being offered for Dortmund to take a minimum of five.
Predictions:
⚽ Over 3.5 Dortmund corners @ 1.25
⚽ Over 4.5 Dortmund corners @ 1.57
🛑 Fouls stats: Lozano involved in a key battle
PSV have committed an abundance of fouls in the Champions League this season, fouling an average of 11.1 times per match thus far.
One persistent culprit has been Hirving Lozano. PSV’s Mexican forward has committed an average of 2.4 fouls per game in the Champions League, committing at least one foul in all but one of his seven appearances at this stage.
One key battle in this game will see Lozano go head-to-head with Dortmund full back Julian Ryerson, who was fouled twice in the first leg.
Lozano committed two fouls in the first leg against Dortmund, and the bookies are offering a price of 1.33 for the winger to foul at least once here.
Predictions:
⚽ Hirving Lozano to commit 1+ fouls @ 1.33
