Prediction: 2-1
Club Brugge
Despite suffering a 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid at Estadio Wanda Metropolitano in their last group game, Borussia Dortmund are still on the right track to book their place in the Champions League knockout stages. The Millionaires are eyeing their fourth win of the process and a victory over Club Brugge will see them cement top position in Group A. Paco Alcacer and Marco Reus have been producing fine performances in all competitions this season and all eyes will be on the duo when the two teams face each other at Signal-Iduna-Park. The Belgium side have slim chances of booking their place in the last 16 of the elite competitions and seeing that they are not regarded as good travelers, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Brugge empty-handed. When the two teams met at Jan Breydelstadion earlier in the process Borussia Dortmund defeated Club Brugge 1-0.
