Greuther Fürth welcomes Borussia Dortmund
Greuther Fürth welcomes Borussia Dortmund in a match from the 1st round of the German DFB Pokal. Let’s take a look at these match in our winning soccer predictions for today.
Greuther Fürth are a three time champion of Germany, but at this moment the club is still playing at the 2. Bundesliga. Led by the Croatian manager Damir Buric, this season Greuther Fürth will do their best to return to the Bundesliga and eventually stay there.
But it would be very difficult to achieve, because right now Greuther Fürth do not have a big budget to operate with. This summer the club signed mainly free agents and also loaned Ghana’s right midfielder David Atanga from Salzburg. Fortuna Koln’s Daniel Keita-Ruel and Stuttgart’s Julian Green were bought for small prices.
Borussia Dortmund are a club which have won the DFB Pokal four times in its history. You can be sure that this season Lucien Favre’s boys will try to at least reach the final. For the last time they did it in 2017, when they have won the trophy.
During the summer market Dortmund acquired the services of the Belgian international Axel Witsel, signing him from the Chinese TJ Quanjian. Other players which Dortmund signed are Mainz 05’s Abdou Diallo, Werder’s Thomas Delaney and Frankfurt’s Marius Wolf. Meanwhile the talented right back Achraf Hakimi was loaned from the European champion Real Madrid until the end of the season.
Clearly Borussia Dortmund are the big favourite here. We hope our winning soccer predictions for today will be helpful for you.How we said, they are going to be a strong contender for reaching the final in May. Greuther Fürth have the advantage to play at home, but in terms of class and quality, they can’t be compared to a powerhouse like Borussia Dortmund. But be careful – this is a cup tournament and all kind of surprises do happen.
