Borussia Dortmund vs Atletico Madrid Prediction and Betting Tips: 41/20 and 14/1 bets for second leg

A place in the Champions League semi-finals awaits one of Borussia Dortmund or Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night, with the visitors holding a 2-1 advantage from the first leg.

Goals from Rodrigo De Paul and Samuel Lino gave Atletico a deserved first half lead in last week's first leg, but an 81st-minute strike from Sebastien Haller make things very interesting in this second leg contest.

The German outfit are considered favourites with their home advantage at around the 5/4 mark. Atletico, whose away record doesn't quite stack up to the success they have experienced this season at the Metropolitano Stadium, are underdogs at 11/5 for a second successive victory over Dortmund. The draw is also available at odds of 11/4 with Midnite.

The fit again Donyell Malen could return to the starting XI for Dortmund in this crucial second leg. If he does, the home side will be a lot better of offensively as the Dutch forward boasts 13 goals in 34 appearances across all competitions this season.

Only one of these strikes has come in the Champions League, however, four goals in his last four starts for BVB bodes well for him returning to form on the biggest stage for the team that find themselves as favourites to win this second contest.

At a juicier price, we've added Malen to be carded in addition to scoring which Midnite have priced at 14/1 at the time of writing.

The 25-year-old has been booked five times during this campaign, but more interestingly, he's picked up this habit more recently, entering the referee's book in four consecutive matches before his injury.

That leaves him with a yellow in four of his last seven outings, and the circumstances surrounding this second leg could well put him on course for another.

This bet has landed three times over the current season, including in two of Malen's last three starts.
