Champions League
Officially, the clubs have met once before: the hosts today have 0 wins, and the guests also have 0. What about goals? Borussia Dortmund pleased their fans once, and PSV scored 1. It is worth noting that the last match took place on February 20, 2024, where PSV played as the host, and it ended in a 1-1 draw.
Borussia Dortmund
In the current Bundesliga campaign, Borussia Dortmund is dealing with much more pragmatic tasks compared to the previous year when they contended for the championship until the final moments of the season. Now, the “Yellow and Blacks” aim to secure a spot in the top four to qualify for the continent’s premier club tournament next year. In the last two rounds, Edin Terzic’s team defeated Union Berlin and Werder Bremen with scores of 2-0 and 2-1, respectively, propelling them to the coveted fourth position in the league table. Now, the “Black and Yellow” will try to focus on their performance in the Champions League, where they have excellent chances to advance to the quarterfinals. In the first leg of the Round of 16, they played a draw away against PSV, securing a good foundation for overall success with a 1-1 result.
PSV
PSV reached the Champions League Round of 16 by starting the tournament from the third qualifying round. The team from Eindhoven eliminated Sturm Graz and Rangers, earning a place in the group stage, where they secured the second position in a tough group with Arsenal, Sevilla, and LASK. Now, the “Red and Whites” are attempting to advance to the quarterfinals, but it won’t be easy, as in the first home game against Borussia, they settled for a draw – 1-1. Meanwhile, in the national championship, Peter Bosz’s team has already secured the top spot after 24 rounds, holding a ten-point lead over the nearest pursuer.

Prediction
Borussia, under the guidance of Edin Terzic, has transformed into a much more pragmatic and defensively solid team than before. The team's playing style shifted notably, especially after the disappointing finish in the previous season when a lack of experience prevented them from holding onto the Bundesliga lead. Now, the "Black and Yellow" focus more on achieving results, leading them to top their Champions League group with "PSG," "Milan," and "Newcastle." In the clash against PSV, they adopted a patient approach, and playing on their home turf significantly increases their chances of success. Therefore, a bet on Borussia's victory with odds around 2.15 seems reasonable. As noted, the current "Borussia" is not the carnival-like team that used to entertain the audience with high-scoring outcomes in every match. The "Black and Yellow" now pay much more attention to defense, particularly evident in their Champions League performances. In the seven previous matches of the current tournament involving "Borussia," only 13 goals were scored (an average of 1.86 per game) a modest figure. In the upcoming battle, given the importance of a positive result, both teams are likely to play cautiously. Therefore, the optimal prediction appears to be a total under 2.5 goals with odds of 2.35. Additionally, a separate bet on "Both Teams to Score No" with odds of 2.45 is worth considering. Our prediction: Borussia's victory with odds around 2.15. Place a bet with
