Borussia mark themselves out as contenders with Atletico thumping

The reverse fixture produced one of the shock results in the last round of Champions League games, as Borussia Dortmund thrashed Atletico Madrid 4-0 at home.

Dortmund's margin of victory against such an experienced European outfit, famed for their defensive solidity, was a major show of intent and marks them out as real contenders to win the competition. At the weekend they continued their fine form with a 1-0 win at Wolfsburg, which stretched their unbeaten record this season (P17 W14 D3 L0).

Lucien Favre's side are now four points clear at the top of the Bundesliga, which is the same number that currently separates Atletico Madrid from the La Liga leaders Barcelona. A 1-1 draw at Leganes over the weekend, stretched Atletico's unbeaten run in their domestic league to eight matches (W4 D4).

A problem for Atletico this season has been the lack of a reliable goalscorer. Antoine Griezmann is their top scorer with five goals in fifteen games, while only four other players have scored more than one goal for Diego Simeone's side.

Dortmund's attack will enjoy another successful night

Atletico don't score many goals but they are at least consistent in finding the net in most matches.

The away match against Dortmund was one of only two games in which Atletico didn't score in their last twelve games. Dortmund have only failed to score in one of their 17 matches, of which nine were away games. Both teams to score seems the bet here at 1.80.
