The stats behind our Borussia Dortmund vs PSV predictions:
- PSV have kept just three clean sheets in their last 12 matches since returning from the winter break.
- Dortmund have scored at least twice in each of their last three competitive matches, but kept just one clean sheet during that time.
- Donyell Malen has scored Dortmund’s first goal of the game in four of their last six matches across all competitions.
Donyell Malen out to haunt his former club?
As soon as this tie was drawn , Donyell Malen will have been dreaming of scoring the winning goal. Now one of Dortmund’s most important attackers, the Dutch winger once graced the field for PSV, scoring 55 goals in 116 appearances between 2017 and 2021 with the Eindhoven giants, picking up an Eredivisie medal along the way.
But Malen will hold no sentiment when Wednesday’s second leg kicks off. In fact, he’ll be looking to extend an excellent run of form that has seen him hit seven goals in his last seven appearances across all competitions, including one in the first leg at the Philips Stadion.
That goal proved good only for a draw, but he’d love nothing more than going one better on Wednesday evening. In doing so, he’d also knock out former Dortmund boss Peter Bosz.

Borussia Dortmund vs PSV odds
Dortmund are the favourites for this match thanks to home advantage, unbeaten in their last eight Champions League games at the Westfalenstadion, winning four and drawing four. But PSV are one of Europe’s most in-form sides this season and have been given a decent chance of progression.
