Borussia Dortmund vs Sporting Lisbon Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Steve Ashfield in Champions League Predictions
Borussia Dortmund continue to struggle in the German Bundesliga but not the Champions League. They are home to Sporting in the second leg of this Knockout Play-off round and lead 3-0 from the away first leg. Can Sporting get back into this tie? Read our match prediction.
The winners of this tie go into the last 16 and will play Aston Villa or Lille. Dortmund are 11th in the German Bundesliga and may well have to win this season's Champions League to be playing in it next season. Just why the Black and Yellow can't produce the goods in their domestic league is one of the mysteries of this season.
Sporting have it all to do to get through to the last 16. The Green and Whites top the Primeira League but coming back from 3-0 down and having to travel to Dortmund is a massively difficult task for them. Can the Lions roar on Wednesday?

Borussia Dortmund - Sporting Lisbon: Form Analysis
Borussia Dortmund have won five games in this season's Champions League. That's only three fewer than they have managed to win in the German Bundesliga where they lost 2-0 at Bochum on Sunday.
The Prussians finished tenth in the league phase of this competition, missing out on a top eight position by one point. Home form was impressive with three out of four matches being won, the other a 3-2 loss to Barcelona. 13 goals were scored in their four matches, seven against Celtic.
Sporting are also struggling for form.
Sporting lead the Primeria League by a couple of points. They are not in the best of form though and on Sunday only drew 2-2 at home to Arouca. Only one of their last five games has been won and that was a home victory over 17th-placed Farense.
On the road, Sporting have only won one of their last seven matches. In the Champions League, they earned four away points in the league phase and have lost their last two.

Borussia Dortmund & Sporting Lisbon Squad Analysis
It'll be one of the most amazing comebacks in Champions League history if Sporting can reach the last 16. Losing 3-0 at home to Dortmund last week was a disaster for the Portuguese side who held Dortmund to 0-0 for the first sixty minutes.
Who scores the first goal in this second leg is going to be vital. Sporting daren't go 1-0 down (4-0 on aggregate) but they'll need to stop Serhou Guirassy. He's scored seven goals in Dortmund's last five Champions League games.
Dortmund are likely to be without Ramy Bensebaini but Carney Chukwuemeka could make his return.
Sporting's strikers need to find their form.
Sporting need to rediscover the form that saw them beat Manchester City 4-1 last November. Since then though, the Lions have only scored four goals in five Champions League fixtures. Viktor Gyokeres has scored 6 goals this season in the Champions League, but his absence due to muscular fatigue is a real setback for the Portuguese.
19-year-old Conrad Harder has been scoring of late and will be a key player for Sporting. They will be without Pedro Goncalves, Francisco Trincao, Nuno Santos, Hidemasa Morita, Jerry St. Juste, Geny Catamo and Daniel Braganca, so this really is an uphill task for them.

Our Borussia Dortmund vs Sporting Lisbon Prediction
It'll be an amazing comeback if Sporting can get back into this tie. They trail 3-0 from the first leg but certainly didn't expect that to be so when the game was 0-0 until the 60th minute. Five of their last eight away games have seen them concede at least twice which isn't promising.
Dortmund probably wish they could play in the Champions League all the time. Their form in this competition is far better than in the German Bundesliga. Our main Borussia Dortmund v Sporting prediction is Borussia Dortmund to win.
