Tottenham 9/4 to beat Borussia Dortmund in Tuesday’s Champions league showdown

Competition: Champions League

Market: Tottenham to beat Borussia Dortmund

Odds: 9/4 @ Bet365

The Champions League is back this week as Europe’s finest come together to battle it out for a place in the latter stages of the competition. With four games having already been played, this week’s matches could be the difference between a team reaching the knock-out rounds and being eliminated early. With this in mind, two sides with vastly differing fortunes come together as Borussia Dortmund host Tottenham on Tuesday.

Borussia Dortmund have been in awful form in Europe this season. Two draws and two defeats have seen them pick up just two points, meaning they are five points short of Real Madrid in second, and eight below Tottenham at the top. Despite the fact they have been abysmal this campaign, they can still go through to the next round. However, they must beat Tottenham this evening and hope Apoel Nicosia beat Real, before the German side then play Real in their last game. While this string of events is incredibly unlikely to happen, the Germans will be holding onto what little hope they have.

Tottenham, on the other hand, have been outstanding this season. Critics questioned whether they would qualify from a tough group, but they have risen to the top with relative ease. Three wins and one draw has given them a three-point lead at the top, and a win in Germany would all but secure them top spot in the group with a game against bottom side Apoel still to come. With this in mind, we are backing Tottenham to beat out of sorts Dortmund with odds of 9/4 from Bet365.
