Borussia Dortmund vs Salzburg Preview
Borussia Dortmund are unbeaten in their last 12 matches, winning six and drawing six. They’ve drawn their last three matches 1-1 and are proving difficult to beat but have been struggling to finish teams off. They’re currently third in the Bundesliga but only four points separate Schalke, Dortmund, Frankfurt, Leverkusen and Leipzig who are all battling it out for the remaining three Champions League spots given that Bayern Munich have all but won the league.
Peter Stöger’s side have never played Salzburg and they may have a tough fixture on their hands given the visitors have won 10 of their last 11 matches. They also haven’t had any trouble finding the net recently, scoring 18 goals in their last five games. However, Dortmund are a step up from the majority of teams in the Austrian Bundesliga and despite Dortmund not excelling in the league this season, they’re still one of the favourites to lift the cup in May.
Andriy Yarmolenko, Sebastian Rode, Erik Durm, Shinji Kagawa and Raphael Guerreiro all remain sidelined for Dortmund through injury. Christian Pulisic, who didn’t get off the bench against Leipzig should make a return to the starting XI while Julian Weigl should also return after missing Dortmund’s last Europa League match against Atalanta through suspension.
If current form is anything to go by then Salzburg should be able to give any team a game at the moment. They’re top of the league and have picked up 10 wins and a draw from their last 11 matches. They got through to the last 16 after narrowly edging past Spanish side Real Sociedad two weeks ago which made them undefeated in their last 13 Europa League matches.
Salzburg have no injuries and Marco Rose will be able to field his strongest starting XI. Duje Caleta-Car’s suspension is up and he should return to the team in centre back.

Borussia Dortmund vs Salzburg Prediction
Both teams have proven tough to beat and this could be a very close match. Salzburg will be full of confidence after going on a 30 game unbeaten run in the league and 13 games in the Europa League but Dortmund will be a tough test for Marco Rose’s side. We’ve seen both sides score plenty of goals in their leagues and we expect both to get on the scoresheet. Dortmund may have just enough to win this game but the value in betting lies with BTTS and over 2.5 goals.
