Borussia Dortmund vs Newcastle Predictions & Match Preview
Tuesday’s football match will take place at Signal Iduna Park, featuring Borussia Dortmund and Newcastle United, two teams currently level on points in Group F.
Borussia Dortmund, also known as the Yellow-Blacks, have experienced a rollercoaster ride in the Champions League group stages. However, their recent victory at St. James’ Park has surely boosted their confidence.
Emre Can, who suffered an injury in the last group game, remains in the recovery room alongside Julien Duranville and Mateu Morey. Niklas Sule is vying for a starting spot after coming on as a substitute in a heavy 4-0 loss to Bayern Munich.
Newcastle United, on the other hand, performed admirably by defeating Arsenal 1-0 in the Premier League derby over the weekend. Yet, prevailing over Borussia Dortmund in Germany is a daunting task.
All things considered, we believe that bettors from all corners of the globe may find value in betting on a draw. Players like Barnes, Botman, Isak, Manquillo, and Anderson will be absent due to injuries for the away team.
Team News:
Borussia Dortmund had few positives to take from their 4-0 loss to Bayern. Nevertheless, Terzic saw his players emerge unscathed physically, leaving only three injured players in the treatment room.
Emre Can is still struggling with a hip issue he picked up two weeks ago against Newcastle. Mateu Morey and Julian Duranville continue their recoveries from knee and thigh injuries, respectively.
Marius Wolf, Donyell Malen, and Salih Ozcan didn’t last an hour in the last match, and their positions are at risk from Karim Adeyemi and Nmecha, the matchwinner at St James’ Park. A recall for Ramy Bensebaini at left-back may also be on the cards if he recovers from a thigh injury.
Conversely, Newcastle is facing mounting injury issues. Jacob Murphy seemed to suffer a recurrence of his shoulder dislocation after coming off the bench against Arsenal, while Dan Burn tweaked his back during a heavy fall and was substituted at halftime.
In addition to Murphy and Burn, Matt Targett (hamstring), Alexander Isak (groin), Harvey Barnes (foot), Elliot Anderson (back), Sven Botman (knee), and Javi Manquillo (groin) are all in the care of the overworked Newcastle medical team. The suspended Sandro Tonali will once again watch from the stands.
With no Targett and potentially no Burn available at Signal Iduna Park, Tino Livramento could be called upon to play at left-back after successfully containing Gabriel Martinelli in the second half at St James’ Park. Alternatively, Lewis Hall represents another youthful alternative.
