Borussia Dortmund VfL Wolfsburg match preview

A pretty interesting duel for the end of the round, with the proviso that Wolfsburg for the second season in a row fails to do what was expected of them, and Borussia also had a catastrophically bad season. It cost them the elimination from the Champions League, and then they were also eliminated from the Cup by Bayern, while they in the championship managed to return in the fight for at least the second place. Wolfsburg has passed in the Cup because they had an easier opponent, and they were pretty bad in the championship and they were in the bottom of the table. In the first this season’s duel, Borussia celebrated with a safe 3-0

Borussia Dortmund

Looking at what happened to Borussia in the first part of the season, the third place on the winter break was even a great achievement. They are where they are mostly thanks to the brilliant start of the season, because after seven rounds without a defeat, they brought eight they played eight rounds without a win and then celebrated twice before the break.

They were disastrously bad in the Champions League and did not defeat anybody in six rounds, and then they mastered Bayern away in the Cup, and said goodbye already in the round of sixteen, so they cannot hope for the title this time. They only have Europa League and fight for the second place in the championship, given that Bayern is too far away. We should also add that they replaced their coach in the first part and now they are led by Stoger, while their team remained the same, even though five players are on the injured list.

Probable lineups Borussia Dortmund: Burki – Piszczek, Sokratis, Toprak, Toljan – M.Gotze, Weigl, Kagawa – Yarmolenko, Aubameyang, C.Pulisic

VfL Wolfsburg

This is another weak season for the “Wolves”, which can possibly be saved by the Cup, however, only in the quarterfinals and it will not be any easy. They have not played in Europe, and it is quite weak in the championship and from the very beginning, they are in the lower part of the table, though they are a little better than last season when they were threatened to move to a lower rank. They are not safe now, and just four points more from the relegation zone do not guarantee them a peaceful spring, especially since they have this difficult hosting at the start.

In the previous five rounds they made only one win with a very promising 3-0 over Borussia from M’gladbach. Before that they have lost in Augsburg, and then played two draws and lost against the last ranked Cologne. They also had problems in the Cup with Nurnberg, so they only reached 2-0 after overtime and passed in the quarterfinals. They were left by the experienced striker M.Gomez in the winter break, and they did not bring any reinforcements, while Brooks, Blaszczykowski and Camacho are injured.

Probable lineups VfL Wolfsburg: Casteels – Verhaegh, Bruma, Uduokhai, Tisserand – Guilavogui, Arnold – Gerhardt, Didavi, Malli – Origi

Verdict:

Borussia has already consolidated their ranks in the finish of the first part of the championship and we believe that they will now play better. Wolfsburg has not shown anything special, and Borussia does not match them anyway, so we anticipate a new defeat.
