Jon Eimer, a soccer analyst for SportsLine, has selected
his best selections for the Friday match between RB Leipzig and Borussia
Dortmund.
Battle of the Titans at Signal Iduna Park: Dortmund vs. Leipzig
Germany's Dortmund The top two clubs in the Bundesliga
square off in what is sure to be an exciting match as the regular season comes
to a close. On Friday, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig will square off at
Signal Iduna Park with both teams hoping to earn the crucial three points that
might be pivotal in the championship chase.
In 2023, Dortmund is undefeated, and they have won nine
straight games overall. When games resumed following the World Cup, the Black, and Yellows have been on fire, outscoring their opponents 23-7. BVB and Bayern
Munich are levels on points, but the Bavarian giants are ahead of BVB in goal
differential, hence BVB is ranked second.
RB Leipzig, on the other hand, has had a mixed season,
winning five games, drawing two, and losing two. They are still a formidable
force, though, with players like Emil Forsberg and Christopher Nkunku capable
of destroying any defense.
The oddsmakers at Caesars Sportsbook have Dortmund as the
match's favorite to win at +116, while Leipzig is listed at +220. The total
number of goals scored has a 2.5 goal over/under, and a draw is valued at +250.
Jon Eimer, a soccer analyst for SportsLine, believes
Dortmund has the advantage over Leipzig. Julian Brandt of Dortmund has scored
six goals and provided six assists in the past seven games, according to Eimer,
who thinks that this is exceptional play. In the last 15 minutes of their
previous nine games, Dortmund has outscored their opponents 6-1, demonstrating
their remarkable late-game play.
Nkunku, though, is Leipzig's well-kept secret weapon. The
French forward has been on fire this season, scoring 12 goals in his first 15
games before suffering a knee injury that forced him to miss three months of
action. Nkunku made a comeback in February and has contributed to Leipzig's
recent victories.
Due to both teams' next critical Champions League
fixtures, the game may have consequences beyond the Bundesliga rankings. In the
second leg of their round of 16 matches, Dortmund must protect a slim 1-0 lead
against Chelsea. In the second leg of their round of 16 encounters, Leipzig
takes on the reigning champions Manchester City.
Both sides are anticipated to deploy their strongest
starting lineups for the game on Friday despite the impending European
matchups. Fans should anticipate a tremendously competitive encounter with both
teams vying for the upper hand because there is so much on the line.
Fans may watch the whole match live on local broadcasters
or online sites beginning at 2:30 p.m. ET. Can Dortmund maintain their winning
ways, or will Leipzig pull off an unexpected victory and sway the championship
race? Time will only tell.
