Recent form

Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund's recent form has been a mixed bag, with the team struggling to find consistency in the Bundesliga despite some strong performances in European competition. The Black and Yellows have managed three wins, one draw, and two losses in their last six matches, showcasing their ability to score goals with an impressive average of 1.83 per game. However, their defensive frailties are evident, conceding 1.33 goals per match and keeping only one clean sheet during this period. Notably, Dortmund's matches have been high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals and both teams finding the net in two-thirds of the fixtures. Their Champions League form appears to be more promising, with convincing victories against Sporting CP and Shakhtar Donetsk, but their domestic performances have been underwhelming, including back-to-back league losses against VfB Stuttgart and VfL Bochum.

Sporting CP

Sporting CP have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with their last six games yielding two wins, three draws, and one loss. The team have struggled to keep clean sheets, with their last coming five matches ago against Nacional. Notably, Sporting CP have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, particularly their recent 3-3 draw with Arouca and a 3-1 victory over Farense. Their goal-scoring record has been consistent, netting in five out of six matches, but their defence has been less reliable, conceding in all but one game. The team's ability to find the back of the net is evident with an average of 1.5 goals scored per game, while their defence has allowed 1.33 goals per game. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 67% of Sporting CP's recent matches, highlighting the team's propensity for exciting, open football.

Recent home/away form

Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund have been struggling at home recently, with their last six matches yielding only one victory. The team have been unable to keep a clean sheet in this period, conceding in all six games. Despite their defensive woes, Dortmund have maintained a consistent attacking threat, scoring in every match and averaging 1.83 goals per game. The fixtures have been high-scoring affairs, with 83% of the games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams finding the net in all encounters. Particularly noteworthy was the thrilling 3-2 loss to Bayer Leverkusen, which epitomises Dortmund's recent home form: entertaining but ultimately disappointing. The team are currently on a three-match winless run at home in the Bundesliga, indicating a concerning dip in their domestic form.

Sporting CP

Sporting CP's recent away form has been rather inconsistent, with only one win in their last six matches on the road. The Lions have struggled to secure victories, drawing three times and losing twice in this period. Their defensive record has been a concern, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game, although they've managed to keep two clean sheets. Interestingly, Sporting have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, particularly the thrilling 4-4 draw against Guimaraes, which contributed to their impressive average of 3.17 total goals per game. The team's attacking prowess is evident, scoring 1.67 goals per match, but their inability to convert draws into wins has hampered their away performances. With both teams scoring in 67% of these matches and over 2.5 goals occurring in the same percentage, Sporting's away games have certainly been entertaining for neutral spectators.
