Borussia Dortmund RB Leipzig betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game has some tendency to be balanced, as it puts in place two formations that go through phases of great confidence and have several players very advanced in technical and tactical. Still, and playing at home, the local club should take the field very offensively, looking for the goal from the first minute. On the other hand, the visiting class should sustain the visitors in the first minutes and put their strong counterattack into practice. That said, we find it very interesting to risk in favor of the "over 2.5 Goals" market in this match.
