by Devesh Jaganath in DFB Pokal Predictions
Arguably the pick of the second-round matches in the DFB-Pokal will come from Volkswagen Arena where Wolfsburg will be taking on Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday night. Die Wolfe are currently in 14th place in the Bundesliga standings, while Die Schwarzgelben are seventh after the first eight games. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Wolfsburg began their DFB-Pokal campaign with a 1-0 victory over lower-league outfit Koblenz in August with Patrick Wimmer scoring the only goal of the match for his team.
However, Die Wolfe have struggled to deliver the same type of form in the top flight this season, currently holding a record of two wins, two draws and four losses in eight games.
Notably, Wolfsburg have been exceptionally poor at home this term, failing to win any of their four league games (W0 D1 L0), while conceding two or more goals in each of those matches.
Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund’s opening match in this competition ended in a comfortable 4-1 win over Phonix Lubeck, where four different players got on the scoresheet for BVB.
However, Die Schwarzgelben enter this match not in the best form, having lost their last two matches in all competitions, while only managing one win in their last four.
On the road, Dortmund are on a three-match losing streak in league matches and have not won a top-flight away game since April 13 against Borussia M’gladbach.

Our Wolfsburg vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
While Borussia Dortmund are inserted as the favourites here, they are likely to make several changes to their squad given their demanding schedule up to the next international break.
Additionally, BVB have been very poor on the road this season, conceding two or more in each of their last four away games, and we feel they will need to outscore their opponents in this one to progress to the next round. Our Wolfsburg vs Borussia Dortmund prediction: Both teams to score!
