Manchester City vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction & Betting Tips - International Champions Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in Football Predictions
It's the International Champions Cup but this looks more like a reserve game between Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund. The English Premier League champions are without 16 players who have just been battling it out in the 2018 World Cup. Their squad had more players in that tournament than any other team so it's a young squad that travel to the USA for this match. Their only senior players are Claudio Bravo, Leroy Sane (controversially left out of Germany's squad), Aymeric Laporte, Joe Hart (back from playing cricket), and Riyad Mahrez who's just signed from Leicester City. Dortmund will also be without key players with Akanji, Piszczek, Reus, Hakimi and Delaney all missing. Makes you wonder why they are playing the game but with a 60,000 crowd due to be watching this reserve match, it's all about cash. How can we win some? A bet on under 2.5 goals is probably the best way forward.

Manchester City - Borussia Dortmund Key Points
- Two of the last three Manchester City games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them.
- Both teams are without star players, particularly Manchester City so the playing levels will be a lot lower than normal so perhaps not many goals around.

- The last two Borussia Dortmund friendlies have had under 2.5 goals scored.

Our Manchester City vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
60,000 people watching a reserve game doesn't sound great but what do you expect if scheduling this game a few days after the World Cup ends? It's a chance for the younger players and those who didn't make it to the World Cup to shine. A bet on under 2.5 goals looks the one to go for.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
