PSV vs Dortmund Over/Under Pick: Over 2½, 3 Goals (-120)
PSV have been excellent at both ends of the pitch, but their defensive record is perhaps the most impressive aspect of how they’ve gone about their business.
They have conceded just 10 goals in the league all season and in the Champions League, they have conceded just one in their last two home matches.
However, Dortmund is one of the best attacking sides in Germany and we expect them to find the back of the net on Tuesday.
If you’re betting online, you should bet the over as we expect a high-scoring affair between two teams with great attacking weapons.
PSV vs Dortmund Player Prop Pick: Luuk de Jong 1+ Goals (+150)
PSV captain Luuk de Jong has been on fire in Eindhoven with seven of his last eight goals coming at home, including one in a 2-0 win over Heracles at the weekend.
If you love soccer player props, he is the player to watch and bet on.
PSV vs Dortmund Best Game Prop: Over 2½ and Both Teams To Score – Yes (-110)
Goals are almost assured at Philips Stadion, where PSV is often relentless and can pummel their opponents into submission. Dortmund’s group-stage showing, however, suggests that they can take the fight to their hosts, staying in the contest ahead of next month’s game in Germany.
