Point Spread: 1.50 | -141.00 (BVB) (Away)
Result: Loss
At 3:00 pm ET, my Champions League Game Of the Month is is on Borussia Dortmund. This is a rematch of 2023-24 Champions League final, a true clash of the titans. Real Madrid won last year's final by a 2-0 score. But if you watched the match, you'll remember that the Germans were the much better team in the first half of that match. They just couldn't convert their opportunities. Read Madrid's goals game in the 73rd and 84th minute. Real Madrid is still very very good. But not unbeatable. They lost to Lille on matchday 2. Dortmund wants revenge and will have plenty of confidence from what was a strong performance (for long stages) of that big showdown at Wembley. Dortmund has been dominant in this year's Champion's League with 10 goals for and 1 against, putting them atop the standings. Those wins didn't come against a team as good as Real Madrid, of course. But the Germans are playing superb football and they learned their lesson last year. They are coming here to win and will give their hosts a battle every step of the way.
