Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Union Berlin and Dortmund will find the net twice at least between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Bo Svensson or Nuri Şahin has served up too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.25 equating to roughly a 79% probability.
