Command Analysis

Borussia Dortmund

Current form
Borussia came to the start of the Champions League as a clear contender for a place in the top eight and a ticket to the 1/8 finals – the finalist of the last draw of the tournament receives this status by default. The bumblebees started with two wins in a row and, in general, nothing foreshadowed disaster, but in the end, several mistakes were made at the finish of the league stage and Dortmund finished only tenth.
Thus, Borussia was obliged to start in the playoffs from the 1/16 finals, but the draw was quite favorable to it, having identified crisis Sporting as rivals. Bumblebees solved all questions about the winner of the pair and a ticket to the 1/8 finals in Lisbon, beating Lviv very unexpectedly with a score of 3:0 without a chance. On their own field, the bumblebees held the necessary goalless draw and passed on.
Borussia has a very difficult situation in the Bundesliga – the bet was clearly on the championship title, but so far Niko Kovac's team is only 10th in the table. The bumblebees are six points behind the Champions League zone, and such a handicap still leaves a chance of success. In the last round, Borussia beat St. Pauli 2-0 away, thus gaining their second victory in a row.

Mane and Nmecha are injured.

Lille

Current form
Lille was not considered a clear contender for a place in the top eight before the start of the Champions League – the Great Danes qualified and even in the confrontation with Fenerbahce were not considered favorites, having very sensationally appeared in the league stage. At the same time, the selection of players allowed us to set ourselves the task of breaking into the top 24 and getting a ticket to the playoffs - we managed to exceed this plan.
At the league stage, Lille looked very stable and created several sensations – a 1-0 home win over Real Madrid in the second round forced competitors to treat themselves with respect, however, this did not save some. In the last round, the Great Danes faced Feyenoord and the victory secured them a place in the top eight – a 6-1 defeat allowed them to finish on the seventh line.
In the French championship, Lille, to put it mildly, is far from perfect and so far occupies only the fifth place in the table with 41 points in the asset. There are chances to compete even for a place in the top three and a direct ticket to the Champions League – the third Nice went ahead by only five points. In the last round, the Dogs lost 1-4 to PSG away, playing far from the main squad, preferring the Champions League.
Disqualifications and injuries
Umtiti, Santos and Zhegrova are injured.
Interesting betting trends
- Lille have lost two of their last four matches.
- Lille have conceded in 10 of the last 11 matches.
- In the last 11 matches, Lille has scored
Approximate composition: Chevalier – Meunier, Diakite, Alexandro, Gudmundsson – B.Andre, Bouaddi – Bakker, Haraldsson, Sahraoui – David.

2.19Tip and bets
Borussia have added stability in recent matches – two dry wins in the championship with a total score of 6:0 over Union and St. Pauli, Sporting was outplayed without any problems. It is obvious that the bumblebees will only strive for victory today, only such a result will leave chances before the second leg, Lille has demonstrated how strong they are at home at the league stage. In general, Borussia is quite capable of achieving its goal – the dogs in away matches, to put it mildly, are not ideal, there are also problems in defense, it makes sense to give preference to the favorite today.
We believe that the guests have no chance. The betting tip is a Borussia victory. This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.67
Bet on the total
Borussia traditionally strive to play openly in their field – despite the importance of the match, the bumblebees are unlikely to change their style, no other result than the victory of the hosts will suit, the pressure on the gates of Lille will be huge from the first minutes. Reliable defensive play is not the strength of the Great Danes and it will be unrealistic to win back to zero in Dortmund, but at the same time, the guests have their trump cards ahead and Lille has no problems with implementation – an exchange of goals in such a duel is almost inevitable.
The bet is that both will score. This bet is offered for 1.75
Combined bid
Borussia has problems in the championship, but they looked more than solid in the Champions League against Sporting, and in the Bundesliga in the last two matches, the bumblebees did not leave any chances for their rivals. Borussia is quite capable of achieving victory and gaining a comfortable advantage before leaving for France, Lille is extremely vulnerable away, but the Great Danes will also take risks, in 11 consecutive matches Lille did not leave rivals dry, it is unlikely that Borussia will be able to put an end to this series.
The bet is a Borussia victory and both will score. This bet is offered for 3.45
