Borussia Dortmund vs Atletico Madrid 16.04.2024 Prediction: UEFA Champions League

Match Overview

One of the biggest games of the season will take place when Borussia Dortmund take on Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their quarterfinal clash in the UEFA Champions League at the Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund on April 16, Tuesday. Atletico had won the first leg by a 2-1 scoreline and have an advantage heading into this game.

Key Highlights 

Atletico Madrid have won the previous 2 matches against Borussia Dortmund. However, what will give their opponents a lot of confidence is the fact that they haven't kept a clean sheet in 10 matches. This means that Atletico's defence, despite being sharp for the most part, have not quite been able to finish the job that they started.

Injury Report

Jadon Sancho and Sebastian Haller remain among the players of Dortmund who are not available for this game. For Atletico, however, Marcos Polo and Vitolo will remain absent from selection.

Prediction

We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game as neither Dortmund nor Atletico appear to be the downright favourites to win it. Dortmund, who have won just three out of the last five games that they have played, will be on their toes throughout this game and not allow the attackers of Atletico to not roam freely in the final third and pick up loose balls.
