The eyes of the sports world will be on Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday, as Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid will face off in the Champions League final. Madrid comes into this final as the favorite, searching for their 15th title in this competition, while Dortmund looks for a second. Here are our soccer betting picks for Borussia Dortmund vs Real Madrid from the iconic Wembley.
This match will be played at 3:00 PM ET at Wembley Stadium on Saturday, June 1, 2024.
Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund had a very disappointing campaign in the Bundesliga this season. They finished fifth in their domestic league in a year that was full of surprises in Germany. But all of that disappointment can melt away for the club if they find a way to beat Real Madrid to win the Champions League. This would be their first title in this competition since 1997 and would more than make up for their fifth-place domestic season.
Dortmund’s defending was incredible in the semifinals of this year’s Champions League. They held PSG scoreless over both legs, neutralizing the great Kylian Mbappe and the rest of the weapons of the Parisian giants. But holding Real Madrid down for 90 minutes or longer will take even more from Dortmund, who certainly have it in them.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid ran the gauntlet to get to the final of this year’s Champions League. They defeated reigning champions Manchester City on penalties in the quarterfinals before taking down Bayern Munich in the semifinals. While Madrid will be the favorites to lift this trophy yet again on Saturday, they know that this match is anything but a break for them, even if Dortmund is not quite on the level of City or Bayern.
In this Dortmund vs Real Madrid final, breaking down the defense of Dortmund will be the number one challenge for the Spanish side. But Madrid have four of the top-13 scorers in this year’s Champions League and certainly have enough firepower to win this match. In a match that could go either way on Saturday night in London, having weapons like Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, and Joselu could make the ultimate difference.
