Borussia Dortmund vs. Hertha BSC
Saturday, May 14, 2022 – 09:30 AM EDT at Signal Iduna Park
Bundesliga Team Trends
- Dortmund has scored at least 1 goal in their previous 46 home fixtures.
- Dortmund has seen over 2.5 goals in their previous 4 games.
- Hertha BSC has won just 4 of their last 29 Bundesliga away matches.
- Hertha BSC concedes an average of 2.25 goals in their Bundesliga away games.
Dortmund's Current Form
There is nothing left to play for in Borussia Dortmund's 2021/22 season. Still, the significance of their weekend visit from Hertha Berlin is presenting a wind of change that many Dortmund faithful won't be happy to partake in.
The club's top goal scorer and arguably the greatest striker on the planet, Erling Braut Haaland, will make his final appearance in black and yellow before making his way to the Premier League, where he'll sport the sky-blue shirt of Manchester City next term.

Haaland couldn't penetrate the net of bottom-placed Greuther Furth last weekend. Still, Dortmund secured the win without the assistance of their star striker, therefore ensuring the 2nd place finish in this term's Bundesliga table.
Hertha's Current Form
Marco Rose will welcome a Hertha Berlin squad to the Signal Iduna Park on Saturday morning. While the home side is playing for pride, Hertha fights for survival as they're positioned just one place above the relegation zone.
Bundesliga Betting Odds and Picks
The Bundesliga odds still favor the home side despite the lack of effort required in this fixture. It's hard to disagree with anything outside of a routine Dortmund win, and I envision they'll grind out their visitors to a comfortable victory.
Haaland will undoubtedly be hunting for his final goal in the Bundesliga, and it's entirely possible versus a low-level Hertha squad who'll have to rely on the results of their fellow drop zone strugglers to ensure survival.
Score Prediction: Dortmund 3 - Hertha Berlin 2

Atletico Madrid vs. Sevilla FC
Sunday, May 15, 2022 - 01:30 PM EDT at Wanda Metropolitano
La Liga Team Trends
- Atletico is unbeaten in their previous 8 home games.
- Atletico owns a record of 40 undefeated games from their last 47 home encounters.
- Sevilla is unbeaten at halftime in their previous 14 La Liga meetings.
- Sevilla has drawn their previous 3 games in all competitions.
Atletico's Current Form
Having already failed to defend their La Liga title from last year, Atletico Madrid is still playing for a position within next season's Champions League. They can secure a top-four finish if they can take 1 point from their weekend visit from Sevilla.
Diego Simeone's men perhaps need their recent run of form earlier in the season to challenge the title, but as the old saying goes, it's better late than never.

Successes over Real Madrid and Real Betis were included in a winning streak that's seen them secure all three points in 9 of their last 12 domestic fixtures.
Sevilla's Current Form
Sevilla is equally looking to entertain Champions League football next term. A win this weekend would place them in third, ultimately leading to an easier tie for next season's European outing.
With that said, recent results for Julen Lopetegui's men haven't been as promising as their opponents, and they've notably won just 1 of their last 11 away meetings.
La Liga Betting Odds and Picks
The La Liga odds have pitted Madrid as this weekend's favorite to win, but plus money price tags can be found on both sides.
I believe both managers wouldn't mind taking one point from this meeting, and ultimately it wouldn't be surprising to see Sevilla's streak of drawn fixtures continue.
Score Prediction: Atletico Madrid 1 - Sevilla 1
Soccer Pick: First-Half Draw (-110) [1.91] [1.10u wager returns 1u of profit] at Everygame
