Dortmund Real Madrid duel for the Champions League title. Tip, 01.06.2024
Will BVB win the title at Wembley Stadium this time?
Saturday sees the last important match of the season - the Champions League final. This year, Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid will face each other. While the Whites are almost certain to reach the final, Dortmund are the big surprise this season. The last time the Germans made it to the final was in 2013, when they were beaten by Bayern. The final also took place at Wembley Stadium back then. They therefore probably still have a score to settle and want to do better this time. However, they will be facing the most successful team in the history of the premier class, having won the competition 5 times since 2014, the last time being in 2022 when they beat Liverpool FC in the final.
Borussia Dortmund
- Paris & Atletico defeated, among others
- Last Bundesliga match won 4:0
- No goals conceded in the semi-final
Real Madrid
- No defeat so far in the CL
- City & Bayern defeated
- Spanish champion
Dortmund is the clear underdog in this final
BVB has shown two faces this season. In the Bundesliga, they have disappointed across the board, finishing in fifth place and having nothing to do with the championship battle. In the Champions League, on the other hand, they have shown top performances and have prevailed against top teams both in a difficult group and in the knockout phase. The last few weeks have also shown both faces very well, as in addition to victories against Paris and Atletico, they also conceded defeats against Mainz and Leipzig. A lot could therefore depend on the team's form on the day. However, the team travels to Wembley with 2 away defeats in the league. They should take heart from their 0:1 triumph at Paris St. Germain.
Dortmund won the group with PSG, Milan and Newcastle in what was probably the most difficult group in the top flight, despite not winning either of their first two games. In the end, however, they were particularly convincing defensively and conceded just 4 goals in 6 games. In the knockout phase, they usually ensured a clear result in their own stadium. They defeated PSV, Atletico Madrid and Paris St. Germain at Signal Iduna Park. The only away win was against the French side. However, the Germans did not concede a goal in either match against the French champions. They have managed to do this in 3 of their last 5 competitive matches. Coach Edin Terzic will also be able to call on all his key players for the final. Marco Reus will play his final game for BVB. It could be the coach's third title after winning the Bundesliga Super Cup in 2020 and the DFB Cup in 2021.

Will Real Madrid lose a Champions League final for the first time?
With 8 CL titles since 1995, Real Madrid are the record holders of the premier league title. What is particularly impressive is that they have not lost a single final match in this time. The last time they won the title was in the 2021/22 season when they beat Liverpool FC. This year, they are the clear favorites and not just because of the quality of their squad. Real are having an outstanding season and have yet to suffer a single defeat in the Champions League. They have also been the measure of all things in Spain this year and won the league title in impressive style. Incidentally, the White Ballet's last defeat came in January 2024.
Carlo Ancelotti's team will travel to London with two draws. In the league, however, they were already crowned champions before the second game, which is why they rotated a little. Nonetheless, they have been unbeaten for almost 5 months and have only suffered 2 defeats this season. Both were against city rivals Atletico Madrid. No other team has been able to beat the Whites. They remain unbeaten in the Champions League to date. They won all 6 games in the group stage. In the knockout phase, they won one of each duel, with the second game ending in a draw. In the quarter-final against Man City, they only prevailed in a penalty shoot-out. In the semi-final against Bayern, they only scored both goals in the 88th minute to advance. In contrast to their opponents, they also had to accept a bitter loss in Aurelien Tchouameni.

Injury update
Real Madrid have confirmed that Frenchman Aurelien Tchouameni will not be available for the final. This is a minor setback for the Whites, as the defensive midfielder was usually a regular starter. However, it is not thought to be a long-term injury, so his participation in the European Championship is not in danger.
Dortmund and Real meet more often in the Champions League
The two teams only meet in the top flight. Real have the slightly better record, having won 6 of 14 matches. Dortmund, on the other hand, have only won 3. Real have remained unbeaten in their last 4 matches. In the 2017/18 season, the Spaniards won both group games against Dortmund. The last knockout duel was also won by Real Madrid. In 2016/17, they celebrated a 3-0 home win, but were beaten 2-0 away from home.

Dortmund need a lot of luck - Our forecast
Real Madrid are the big favorites in this final and will remain so. A tip 2 is therefore the logical choice. However, Dortmund have already shown in the knockout matches that they are difficult to overcome. We therefore believe that less than 3.5 goals will be scored in the final. A double chance bet 1/X is of course not out of the question and will give you attractive odds on your betting slip. In general, however, a win bet in a final is very difficult to predict.
