Club Brugge vs Dortmund Prediction, Odds and Betting Tips

🏆 Club Brugge vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction – 18/09/2024

Brugge have kicked off the defence of their Pro League title with 3 wins from their opening 6 League games leaving them in third place in the table at the first international break of the new season. Their most recent game was a 3-0 win against Cercle Brugge before the break, and so far this season they have score 9 league goals and conceded 6.

Dortmund who were defeated by Real Madrid in last season’s decider at Wembley have started their new campaign under their new Head Coach Nuri Sahin with a win and a draw from their opening two League games. They also won their DFB-Pokal First Round tie against Phonix Lubeck on a scoreline of 4-1. They have yet to concede a goal in the Bundesliga so far this season and will hope to carry that defensive solidity into another Champions League campaign. Even though it’s early in the campaign and it’s hard to judge where exactly teams still are, I would expect Dortmund to go to Belgium and pick up a win over Brugge. I think Brugge will score at home, but Dortmund will go on to win 2-1, and claim the three points on offer in their opening Champions League fixture.
