Forecast for Dortmund - Sevilla
All this, as well as the nature of the two teams, and of course the result of the first meeting, suggest one thing.
Namely, expectations for a high-scoring rematch between the teams of Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla.
However, this is also the public attitude. As the odds are well tuned to this possibility.
But to my surprise I find a very good odds for something very possible as an early goal for the guests.
They not only have the potential to do so. But there is simply nothing to wait for in this meeting.
Almost a big bet for Sevilla's goal in the first half is my choice for prediction.
