On Wednesday, the second UEFA Champions League semi-final will be played. The football fashion this season is dominated by the super clubs from Germany and Spain. We review the perspectives of the future opponents and present the odds set by the bookmakers at "TonyBet".
Dortmund's "Borussia" - 2.75 / Draw - 3.45 / Madrid's "Real" - 2.50
If the current champions of Spain and Germany are fighting in the first semi-final, then in this match they are crossing paths of the last season's champions. The paths of these teams crossed in this season's group stage matches - in the first leg in Dortmund, "Borussia" triumphed 2-1, and in Madrid, "Real" managed to secure a 2-2 draw.
Interestingly, in the group stage, the scandalous coach of the royal club, Jose Mourinho, predicted that the yellow team from Germany are the main contenders to win the Champions League tournament this season. However, Dortmund's "Borussia" needed a miracle in the quarter-finals against "Malaga", when they saved themselves with two late goals.
Meanwhile, the Madrid team had to sweat against the Turkish giant "Galatasaray". The German club is aiming to reach the Champions League final for the second time in the club's history, and "Real" for the 13th time, although the last three semi-finals for the Whites have been unsuccessful since their last triumph in 2002. If the match ends 0-0, a special tiebreaker will be applied.
