FC København vs Borussia Dortmund - 02/11/2022

On Wednesday night, FC Copenhagen hosts Dortmund in Group G of the Champions League in something of a dead rubber.
Copenhagen
The Danish outfit kicked off the group stage as the outsiders to qualify for the last 16. That is how it has turned out for the home team, who have picked up just two points from their five matches in Group G.
They head into gameweek six three points behind third-place Sevilla. However, the Spanish team has a superior head-to-head record, so Copenhagen cannot leapfrog Jorge Sampaoli’s team.
Copenhagen’s struggles in Group G were not a surprise, as they have now won just one of their previous nine matches in the Champions League. Their main problem in this season’s group stages has been scoring goals, as they have failed to find the net in all five of their group games.
One slight positive for the home team is that they have kept back-to-back clean sheets on home soil in the Champions League against Sevilla and Manchester City.
Dortmund
BVB seem to have found a touch of consistency of late, as a 2-1 win at Eintracht Frankfurt last time out means that Edin Terzic’s team has won three of their previous four games in all competitions, including recording three wins.
Dortmund have already confirmed their spot in the last 16 of the Champions League due to their superior head-to-head record against third-place Sevilla. However, the visitors can’t win the group due to an inferior head-to-head record against group leaders Manchester City.
BVB have a slightly inconsistent recent record in the Champions League, but three wins from their last nine matches in European football’s elite competition is not a great record.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Dortmund will end their Group G campaign on a high, with a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
