Borussia Dortmund will be looking to secure back to back wins for the first time in over a month on Tuesday night when they host Sturm Graz in the Champions League.

The BVB have had a very rough spell over the last few weeks. Dortmund hosted RB Leipzig in the league last weekend with the hopes of ending a five games losing streak across all competitions. Nuri Şahin’s side ended that run in style as they came from a one deficit to beat the Red Bulls 2-1. Die Schwarzgelben’s last game in the Champions League saw them suffer a humiliating 5-2 defeat to Real Madrid in Spain, but having already picked up two wins from their three European games this season, they are just one point off the top eigth.

Sturm Graz meanwhile dropped points for only the fourth time in the Austrian Bundesliga last weekend when they hosted Rapid Wien. The Blackies remain at the top of the standings despite playing a 1-1 draw but in Europe they have had nothing to celebrate, with Christian Ilzer’s men losing all three games played so far.

Borussia Dortmund vs Sturm Graz Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals

One of the major reasons Dortmund sit outside the top four in the German top flight is their defence. Indeed, the Black and Yellows enter Tuesday’s game with a run of nine consecutive games across all competitions without a clean sheet. They conceded at least two goals in four of those fixtures and bets on over 2.5 goals lost only once in that spell.

Sturm Graz have also had very little to celebrate over the course of their last few weeks when it comes to defending. The Austrians failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last five outings and their defensive record on the road in Europe isn’t also good.

  • Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
