Match Preview: PSG Vs Dortmund

After an impressive home win against the newly crowned Ligue 1 champions, Borussia Dortmund will be hoping to repeat their success and claim a win that would take them to their first Champions League final since 2013. After a hard fought home leg, with the teams fairly even, the Parisians are the favourites to progress. However, a resolute Dortmund defence with only six losses this season will be confident in keeping out Kylian Mbappe and co.

But, with one of the most impressive front lines in Europe and arguably the world’s best player in Kylian Mbappe, PSG will not give up without a fight. The newly crowned French champions struggled in front of goal in the first leg with Dortmund keeper Gregor Kobel putting in a solid shift. Star man Mbappe will give his all to cap his PSG career with European honours, before his departure at the end of the season. And with the second most goal involvements in the whole of Europe, behind only Harry Kane, Dortmund face an enormous task keeping the Frenchman off the scoresheet.

Historically the teams are very even, with two wins each and one draw the last five times they’ve faced off in the Champions League.

PSG Vs Borussia Dortmund Odds

The odds favour the French champions, who are 1.49 for victory. A draw sits at 5.00 and Dortmund are 5.60 to repeat their performance from last week and progress to the final.

Floodgates

With the first leg being a cagey affair with strong goalkeeping performances and neither team being quite able to find their composure in front of goal. The second leg may prove a complete contrast, with both sides desperate to feature at Wembley on June 1st. 2.5+ goals is at 1.35 with both teams to score at 1.47.

Last Hurrah

After announcing his exit at the end of the current campaign, Kylian Mbappe will be keen to leave PSG fans with something to remember. With eight goals in 11 appearances this season in the Champions League, the Frenchman is certainly determined to make this season one to remember. Mbappe is 1.53 to score anytime in the match and 3.25 to score first.

French Exit

However, Dortmund never roll over and prove themselves time and time again as a difficult game for top teams. If they can hold out from the inevitable attacking pressure from PSG, their dynamic strike force could power the team past the Parisian giants, Borussia Dortmund are 5.60 to win. And newly rejuvenated Jadon Sancho is 15.00 to score.
