Borussia Dortmund vs Atalanta Predictions
Borussia Dortmund’s home sequence sets the tone for a first-leg edge
Borussia Dortmund have won six straight Bundesliga matches, a run that has increased the pressure on Bayern Munich and underlined their domestic consistency. Across all competitions they have also taken five wins from their last six home games, and that frequency holds at Signal Iduna Park.
In Europe the recent record shows fluctuation. Defeats to Tottenham and Inter Milan in January pushed Dortmund into the play-off round rather than direct progression. Yet in this competition they have also delivered notable home wins over Villarreal and Athletic Bilbao, and both fixtures were controlled by the final scoreline. That pattern of responding strongly on home soil remains visible.
Atalanta’s recent European losses add to that contrast. They were beaten by Athletic Bilbao and Union Saint-Gilloise last month, results that interrupted their continental rhythm. Domestically they have recovered from a poor start to sit sixth in Serie A, but those European setbacks sit alongside this trip to Germany.
Five wins in six home matches, combined with six consecutive Bundesliga victories, keep a Borussia Dortmund win at 2.10 aligned with the current run and the first-leg setting.
Tip: Borussia Dortmund to Win ( at N/A)
Guirassy’s recent scoring burst carries into European nights
Serhou Guirassy has scored five goals in his last three matches for Borussia Dortmund. That sequence includes decisive finishes in quick succession, and the scoring rate across this short spell stands at five in three.
In this season’s Champions League he has also scored in home wins over Villarreal and Athletic Bilbao. Both goals arrived at Signal Iduna Park and both were part of victories in this competition. His output in Europe mirrors the recent domestic run.
The team context provides volume rather than prediction. Dortmund have won five of their last six home matches in all competitions and are on a six-game Bundesliga winning streak, which sustains attacking continuity. At the same time Atalanta lack a scorer of comparable calibre in this tie, and their recent European defeats to Athletic Bilbao and Union Saint-Gilloise show limited cutting edge in those games.
Five goals in three matches, plus earlier Champions League strikes against Villarreal and Athletic Bilbao, keep the anytime scorer line of 2.05 within the current scoring range.
