This has the potential to be the highest-scoring Champions League tie of the week. PSV average a massive 8.86 shots on target this season and Dortmund a healthy 5.32. Of course, those stats are inflated for PSV because of their domestic dominance but they rank 4th for the most shots on target in the Champions League group stage with an average of 5.80 per game. We don’t think it’s asking too much for them to fire in over 4.5 on target here.

Dortmund will fight fire with fire and offer plenty themselves. Their shots on target line is even lower at 3.5 and again it’s the overs which looks quite attractive. In a very tough group, the Germans averaged exactly 4.50 shots on target per game so they should cover this with relative comfort in Eindhoven. This does not have the feel of a tight and cagey game so the open nature may well lead to several attempts.

PSV average a ridiculous 7.45 corners per game. That number comes down to 4.66 in the Champions League but that is still a decent figure, especially when you consider the fact they played Arsenal twice. They are at home and should be on the front foot in quite an entertaining game, so we think we can rely on at least five PSV flag kicks.

Dortmund average a healthy 5.66 corners per game in the Champions League this season which is again very impressive when you consider the calibre of opponent they faced in the group stage. Dortmund will have their moments in this match and have dangerous wide players who could all win corners. Over 8.5 total corners and it looks quite a safe play when you consider the numbers and the expected game dynamics.

Neither side are known for their dirty play but there are a couple of individuals who stand out. Ian Maatsen is priced as big as 1.29 to commit one or more fouls, which looks big considering his seasonal average of 1.50. The Chelsea loanee, who excelled at Burnley last season, has been slotting in at left back for Dortmund. He’s young and energetic but can sometimes get carried away and press too much.

Moroccan midfielder Ismael Saibari is going to be PSV’s main enforcer in midfield. He averages 1.58 fouls per 90 minutes and there is no way he is going to be able to play a clean game in such a high profile fixture. He’s 1.10 to commit one or more fouls which is too short to consider, but the 1.57 on offer that he commits two or more fouls looks like a value bet builder leg. Unless his first offence produces a card, we’ll be in a strong position.
