Verdict
Verdict: Dortmund has the edge but expect goals. Werder's home defensive record is poor, and Dortmund's attack is potent. S. Guirassy and J. Ryerson are key to Dortmund's chances. The odds favor Dortmund at 1.84, but the over 1.5 goals bet at 1.18 offers more value given both teams' defensive vulnerabilities. Expect a dynamic match with goals from both sides.
