Value football betting tips and predictions

Sporting Lisbon hosts Borussia Dortmund at the Estadio Jose Alvalade in a game from the Champions League’s playoffs on Tuesday. Let’s see what we can tell you about it in these Value football betting tips and predictions. Here we go!

Sporting are still getting used to life without Ruben Amorim. They already sacked his successor, who was inherited by Rui Borges. But Amorim’s departure to Manchester United is not leading to great things for Sporting – since the fantastic 4-1 win against Manchester City, Amorim’s last game in the Champions League, the Lions lost three times and made just one draw.

Despite everything, Sporting still can rely on some fantastic players in their squad. The Swedish striker Viktor Gyökeres has 34 goals in 34 matches in all competitions while players like Zeno Debast and Morten Hjulmand are important in midfield. Keep an eye on Barcelona’s former winger Trincão who is very dangerous with the ball.

Borussia Dortmund will face Sporting in the Champions League’s playoffs with their new head coach Niko Kovac. The Croatian tactician is replacing Nuri Sahin who got sacked because of poor results. Against Sporting, Kovac will be coaching Dortmund for a first time in the Champions League.

For Niko Kovac the game against Stuttgart in the Bundesliga will be a general repetition for facing Sporting in Europe. It’d be curious to see how the former Bayern Munich manager will change the team – the system, the line-up, etc.

Just like Sporting have Viktor Gyökeres, Borussia Dortmund have Sehrou Guirassy – another deadly striker who can decide games on his own. We expect Guirassy to be supported by players like Julian Brandt and Jamie Gittens from behind. Karim Adeyemi is another option for Dortmund’s line-up.

That’s the Value football betting tips and predictions for the Champions League playoffs game between Sporting Lisbon and Borussia Dortmund. Let’s see if one of these two teams will get an advantage before the second leg.
