Wolfsburg team overview
Wolfsburg are having a terrible season and are in danger of suffering relegation for the first time in the 21st century. The Wolves were constantly a couple of points away from dropping into the relegation zone, but managed to avoid it. Still, a poor campaign led to the sacking of coach Paul Simonis and the appointment of Daniel Bauer during the winter break. Unfortunately, that coaching change seems to have had little effect, as they acquired only four points in five rounds under him.
After a 1:0 loss against FC Koln, coach Daniel Bauer spoke to the media. He said it was a good effort by his team, but also expressed disappointment about the result. The coach said they created many chances but failed to convert them.

Borussia Dortmund team overview
Unlike Wolfsburg, Borussia Dortmund are playing a really good season. Despite losing their last two Champions League games in January, the Prussians secured a spot in the knockout phase, where they will face Atalanta in mid-February. In the Bundesliga, Dortmund have been consistently among the top four, and after a four-game winning streak, they have climbed to 2nd place. With Bayern Munich earning just one point in their last two matches, Dortmund are now only six points behind the league leaders.
After a 3:2 win over Heidenheim, coach Niko Kovac spoke to the media. He said they fought hard after falling behind and then showed character and resilience to hold on to lead. When asked about title ambitions, the coach said they need to keep earning points and not get too ahead of themselves.

Prediction
Wolfsburg have been excellent for this type of bet lately, as both teams scored in four of the last five games. Looking further back, even before the winter break, we saw them constantly playing games with both teams scoring. That isn't really a surprise since Wolfsburg are the best team in the league for this type of bet, with 75% of their Bundesliga games finishing with BTTS.
Borussia Dortmund are doing a great job offensively in the Bundesliga. They have scored at least one goal in each of their 20 league games and have also scored 3+ in the past five. So, one or two goals seem pretty inevitable.
Considering all the above, both teams to score bet seems like the safest bet for this Bundesliga tie.
3 Reasons why we should see both teams scoring
- Both teams scored in 75% of Wolfsburg's Bundesliga games
- Wolfsburg scored in the last six Bundesliga home games
- Borussia Dortmund scored in each of their 20 Bundesliga games
