Borussia Dortmund vs Tottenham Hotspur
Tuesday 5th March 2019, Signal Iduna Park
UEFA Champions League – Round of 16 – 2nd Leg
BT Sport 2 – 20:00 GMT
Tottenham Hotspur are back in UEFA Champions League action as they travel to Borussia Dortmund in hopes of retaining their aggregate lead.
The first leg at Wembley Stadium saw Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs run away with the match as they came out 3-0 victors. The Germans have a huge task ahead of them, with history showing just seven teams out of 130 in the history of this competition have turned around a 3-0 loss in the first-leg.
Dortmund are favourites to win this match from SkyBet, who have priced them at 10/11. However, the bookmakers don’t fancy their chances at qualifying for the next round as they are priced at 8/1 to win over the two legs. The Germans are going through a tricky patch given how impressive their season has been. They have just one win from their last five matches however one man hoping to turn their fortunes will be poster boy Marco Reus. The winger has been declared fit for the match and has managed six goals in his last nine matches. He is 11/8 to score anytime.
The two teams last five meetings have all resulted in goals being scored, with at least 3 goals scored. They are 21/10 to win and for both teams to score.
Tottenham are not favourites for the second-leg as many expect them to defend their lead. SkyBet have priced them at 11/4 to win at full-time. Spurs did themselves a huge favour by keeping a clean sheet in the first leg as Dortmund have no away goals. If they manage to bag a goal in this leg than the tie should be all over. Everyone supporting Spurs will be expecting Harry Kane to deliver the goods as his record of three goals in three games against Dortmund makes him a hot contender to score. He is 7/5 to score anytime.
The referee for this match will be Dutch official Danny Makkelie. The man in the middle could have his work cut-out, as many knockout matches see plenty of cards. 50+ booking points is priced at 11/8.
Borussia Dortmund vs Tottenham Hotspur will be televised on BT Sport 2 HD and kicks off at 20:00.
