Borussia Dortmund went through the disappointing last week: the team has lost many points both in the Bundesliga and in the UEFA Champions League mainly because of the numerous mistakes in defense. In terms of the DFB Pokal, the defending title holder entered the new season with the lopsided 4:0 triumph over Rielasingen-Arlen, having proved that “Die Schwarzgelben” determined to win the trophy in this season again. Peter Bosz’s side got four triumphs, two draws and single loss in seven encounters at away turfs.
The rivals have never faced each other in official games. It is evident that the 3. Liga representative have no chances for success in the battle against the German football grand, still, Magdeburg surely keep on fighting to the very last minute of the clash.
Prediction for the match: Magdeburg to win with +3.0 Asian handicap.
