Liverpool vs Borussia Dortmund Betting Tips and Predictions

Liverpool vs Borussia Dortmund predictions and football betting tips for this week’s Europa League quarter final second leg at Anfield.

 

What a game. This match involves Borussia Dortmund travelling to Liverpool on Thursday evening with kick off scheduled for 20:05 in this Europa league tie. This game is due to be the game of the tournament. Dortmund travel to Anfield in which is what we know will be a classy game, with support from even classier fans. It’s a massive game for both clubs and one which will not disappoint.

 

Liverpool vs Borussia Dortmund Preview

 

Liverpool

Liverpool put on a very impressive display at Klopp’s old ground last Thursday and came away very much still in the tie, they even brought home an away goal, which is two things no one predicted beforehand. They are one of the only unbeaten teams in European competitions before, alongside Barcelona, which is a very impressive stat. Jurgen Klopp rested many of his stronger players at the weekend in which Liverpool rolled stoke over. Firmino only played a small part and Coutinho didn't get a minute, Sturridge and Origi both complimented each other very well and will only leave Klopp with more confidence ahead of this one.

 

Borussia Dortmund

Dortmund were strong favourites before the first leg, and still are, just in front of double winners and defending champions Sevilla. Tuchel rested all of his first team squad in their derby at the weekend (by the way you would of landed 2/3 tips if you followed my preview including a 3/1!) which shows how much respect he has for his opposition and the competition here. However, Dortmund need to go into this game with a result. They definitely possess the players of going out and doing that but will they be able to stop the counter as they go for goals.

 

This is a game I personally have been looking forward to. The Liverpool fans are planning to fill the stadium early and greet the team bus on its way down to the stadium, something that helped fuel the title run under Rodgers in which they just fell short. Dortmund fans are planning to unmask a black and yellow mosaic in respect of the 96 in the away end which shows just how classy they are as a club.

 

Liverpool vs Borussia Dortmund Predictions

 

Dortmund are favourites to actually qualify for the semi-finals, however they need a goal at least in this game. A 1-1 draw is the only result that would take the game to extra time, so if Liverpool come out and score early, they are going to make Dortmund do a lot of work. Although the Dortmund players have been rested, so have some of the Liverpool players, when they play well, they are unstoppable, especially when this can be a famous European night at Anfield, which I can assure you is magical if you are lucky enough as me to have been to one. If this game is forced to go to extra time and/or penalties, then I believe Liverpool will be carried by their fans and the team spirit. My first Liverpool vs Borussia Dortmund prediction is for Liverpool to qualify is available at 11/10 with Paddy Power, I believe this is good value considering they go into the game with the away goal behind them.

Coutinho is a special player. He has proven himself many times at the big stage and with a rest behind him, he can turn his magic on and hurt this Dortmund team. Liverpool will likely rely on the likes of Coutinho, Firmino, Origi and Sturridge to create the magic going forward and get Liverpool a much needed goal. If you watch Coutinho, he will cut in onto his right foot many times during a game and try to fly one past the keeper. Something he has done many times in his career and even a few times this season. If he is to score, it will be from outside the box and so my next Liverpool v Borussia Dortmund prediction for this Europa League quarter final second leg is Coutinho to score from outside the box at the odds of 10/1 with Sky Bet.

 

I have mentioned already in this Liverpool vs Dotmund betting preview I do fancy Liverpool to go and win this game, they have tightened up at the back since Jurgen took charge, however I think it will be difficult to keep Dortmund out completely. The Liverpool forwards will be full of confidence as the Kop will belt out songs to act as the 12th man and they may have the ability to ensure Liverpool win the game in 90 minutes. I have already gone for a big punt here so I have picked a correct score group bet for my final Liverpool vs Borussia Dortmund betting tip. This is a favourite of mine as it gives you a few chances to land this tip. Liverpool to win 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1 is available at 3/1 with Sky Bet. Again big odds but with this particular feature it is definitely possible.
