A huge match-up is upon us in the Bundesliga on Saturday, when Wolfsburg will play host to Dortmund. Both teams are coming into this match after bad mid-week losses in the Champions League, but they had opposite results in the Bundesliga last week.

Wolfsburg (6-4-2) are coming off a bad 2-0 loss on the road against Sevilla in the Champions League mid-week and they are now in trouble in that group. Last week they played for a 2-2 draw on the road against Arminia Bielefeld, in a match where they had to come back from two goals behind in order to salvage a point. Wolfsburg are sitting at the 6th spot of the Bundesliga with 20 points, scoring 14 goals and conceding 14 in the process. They have not been anything special at home so far (3-2-1), scoring 5 and conceding 6 goals. Moreover, they have a win and a draw in their two Champions League matches at home, which brings their total home record to 4 wins, 2 losses and 2 draws. Not too shabby.

Dortmund (9-3-0) met a bad 3-1 loss on the road against Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League, in a match where they were completely dominated. Dortmund have been plagued by injuries for quite a while now, including star player Haaland, Bellingham and many others, a total of 10 injured players. Last week they scored a late goal to beat Stuttgart by 2-1 at home, but they have lost 3 of their last 4 in all competitions. Even so, Dortmund are still sitting at the 2nd spot of the Bundesliga with 27 points, just 1 point behind Bayern Munich. They have not bee very good on the road so far (2-3-0), scoring 9 and conceding 9 goals in the process. They have lost 4 of their last 5 away matches in all competitions, failing to score in 2 of those.

Dortmund won both matches against Wolfsburg last season, both by 2-0. They have now won each of the last 6 against them, and are unbeaten in the last 12 (11-0-1), while also keeping clean sheets in the last 9. That means that Dortmund have won each of the last 6 matches against Wolfsburg in this venue. With Dortmund missing so many players and Wolfsburg still trying to figure out the new coach, I am risking with the outright Draw here.
