Pick:	Borussia Dortmund -2.5 (-135)
Start:	May 17, 2025 @ 9:30 AM
Expert:	Doc's Sports

Analysis:

Comp German Bundesliga Soccer Play from Doc’s Sports. Take Borussia Dortmund -2.5 (-135) over Holstein Kiel (9:30 a.m. EST, Saturday May 17) (Graded after regulation time - 90min - plus injury time) The last time these sides met at Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund, the home side cruised to a 5-0 victory. We feel that there is a great chance we see that type of match here. Dortmund is one point out of Champions League qualification, right behind Freiburg, and three points is crucial here. Holstein Kiel has already been relegated, so they have lost their fighting spirit here and will be preparing for their stint in the second division next season. The home side has won five straight and beat Wolfsburg 4-0 in their last home match. They should have a similar type game here, as they need these points badly and they will not leave anything to chance as they will attack early and often against an overmatched opponent.
