A Sports Betting Pick by Niko
Football; UEFA Champions League: 06th Round
Signal Iduna Park – Dortmund
Wednesday, 10th December 2025 - kickoff 21:00 CET
Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund come into this match as clear favourites. Their UEFA Champions League campaign so far has been strong, and at home they are particularly dangerous, able to dominate possession and create a high volume of chances. The team thrives on pace and pressing, and with attackers Karim Adeyemi and Serhou Guirassy in form, Borussia Dortmund can punish teams that leave gaps at the back.
In recent Bundesliga matches, they have shown resilience and a knack for turning things around even when things are not going well, which gives them confidence going into European fixtures. Last weekend, they beat TSG Hoffenheim 2-0 at home, extending their unbeaten series to six straight matches (four wins).
Their experience at Signal Iduna Park in high-pressure games also plays a big role — Bodo/Glimt will feel the weight of the atmosphere from the first whistle.
Borussia Dortmund will likely approach this as a game to control from start to finish, balancing attack with solid defensive organisation.
Bodo/Glimt
Bodo/Glimt is one of the few teams without a single win in Europe this season. They drew twice and lost all their last three European games, most recently 2-3 at home to Juventus.
They ended their Norwegian domestic season with a comprehensive 5-0 win over Fredrikstad in the last round, but this will be a whole different game. And their last game to play this year.
Bodo/Glimt arrive as underdogs but not pushovers. Domestically, they have been in good form and are unafraid to attack, which makes them dangerous on the counter. However, this is a very different challenge: Borussia Dortmund’s speed, pressing, and finishing quality will test every aspect of their game.
Their main hope will be to stay compact, frustrate Borussia Dortmund, and try to hit on quick transitions. That said, their defensive record in Europe this season shows vulnerability, and it’s unlikely they can keep Dortmund completely at bay over the whole game.
The Betting Verdict
Borussia Dortmund should have too much quality and depth for Bodo/Glimt, especially at home. I expect them to control the game and get the job done, probably winning by two or three goals. Let’s not forget that Borussia Dortmund beat Athletic Bilbao and Villarreal 4-1 and 4-0 in their last two European home games.
I feel like this game could end in like a 3-0 home win. Borussia Dortmund may keep a clean sheet if Bodo/Glimt fail to take their chances, but a single goal for the visitors isn’t impossible if Borussia Dortmund get sloppy in the final minutes.
Overall, Borussia Dortmund’s firepower and home advantage make them the clear choice in this game. I would combine the home win with some goals in the match for better odds.
