>Posting Monday for Tuesday spot for huge Tuesday match...
Tuesday, May 26, 2020 A.D.—Germany Fußball-Bundesliga 🦋
111101 Borussia Dortmund—Bayern München Over 3½ -107 (BetOnline)


12:30 pm EDT/9:30 am PDT (FS1. FOX Deportes, FOX Soccer Match Pass, Foxsports.com, SIRIUSXM FC)—The best rivalry of late in the German Fußball-Bundesliga has been perennial champions Bayern Munich (19-4-4, 80 GF-28 GA) and perennial chasers Borussia Dortmund (17-6-4, 74 GF-33 GA) and the two will lock horns again on Tuesday from a Yellow Wall-less Signal-Iduna Park (Grass) in Dortmund in a game with huge implications with the hosts just 4 points (61-57) behind Der FCB heading in here. The Referee for this Matchweek 28 and attention grabbing match will be Tobias Stieler.

Offshore sportsbook BetOnline currently have GK icon Manuel Neuer, D David Alaba (5/1 to Score Goal, BetOnline) and Bayern Munich as -115 Favorites with hosts Dortmund +250 on the takeback and a Draw priced at +259. The Total is 3½u -113 (Over -107; $20.70 to win $10) and backing Bayern Munich -½ is -115 with Mahmoud Dahoud (7/1 to score a Goal, BoL) and Borussia Dortmund +½ at -105.

Looking at the series record in Bundesliga play between Borussia Dortmund (WWLWW) and Fußball-Club Bayern München (WWWWW) we see that Die Bayern is 47-29-25 (199 GF-122 GA) in all league games but just 15-19-16 at Dortmund (69 GF-71 GA) and 58-34-32 overall in all competitions (235 GF-152 GA). Bayern has W2 in the series by a 9-0 margin (BAY 4-0 DORT, BAY 5-0 DORT), but both of those games were at Allianz Arena in Munich and when the two met back in Round 11 in November at Munich, Bayern won 4-0 as veteran Striker Robert Lewandowski had a Brace and Neuer notched a Clean Sheet to show the visitors who's boss. Nobody does it better.

BvB Captain Marco Reus is Out and Mats Hummels (Thigh, OG in first meeting) is listed as Questionable but expect him to go, so the Black and Yellow will head in hobbled but Bayern will be without the services of Philippe Coutinho (Ankle) and Thiago Alcantara (Muscle) and facing a team in a must-win situation. Zero is the exact number of Rips I give.

Mario Göetze—who will reportedly leave Dortmund this Summer on a Free Transfer—and Dortmund have W6 straight in Bundesliga and are unbeaten 10-3-0 at Home, scoring 16 straight vs opponents at Home. ßut that was all with the valuable and loud Yellow Wall packing Westfalenstadion and not against mighty Bayern (9-2-2 on Road, 2.85 Rgpg) who have just 2 L’ in their L23 results (20-1-2).


Jaden Sancho has 11 Goals and Assists in 14 of his L16 league fixtures for BvB and with Lewandowski (27 Goals, 2/1 to Score Goal) good for a Goal every time he starts for Bayern Munich, laying the lumber (-260, BetOnline) and backing the Both Teams To Score (Yes) prop seems wise as this one should have at least 2 scores from each side, even with Dortmund on that 16-goal Home run and even with the great Manuel Neuer in net for the visitors as 3 of L4 meetings in the series have seen the team that scores first end up losing.

Bayern (W6) can extend their lead to 7 points with a Win and pretty much seal up the league—contested for most of the season—and despite the Site and the red-hot Sancho, Bayern Munich are a slightly better club right now and have two rising native German stars in 24-year-old F Serge Gnabry (Goal first meeting, 46’) and 25-year-old MF Leon Goretzka, (+280 to Score Goal, BoL; Bet $5.55 to win $21.89) and should win this in an entertaining and high-scoring fashion in Dortmund (Partly Cloudy, 58% Humidity, 69°) with big man Lewandowski (2 Goals first meeting, 17’ 76’) strong up top for Bayern and Erling Håland (+110 to Score Goal, BoL) a big threat for Dortmund. Be there or be square.
