<h1>FIFA Club World Cup - Real Madrid vs Dortmund Betting Predictions: Old Foes Go Up Against Each Other&nbsp;</h1> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund have a lot of history. A new chapter will be written on Sunday&nbsp; (04:00 am AEST) when the two take to the MetLife Stadium in New York, to do battle once again.</p> <p>The Spanish side set up their place in the quarter-finals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup by defeating Juventus 1-0. The Germans sealed their place in the last eight with a 2-1 victory over Mexican side Monterrey.</p> <p><strong>Xabi Alonso</strong> would have learned a lot about Dortmund during his time in Germany in charge of Bayer Leverkusen, but can he guide his new club to victory on Sunday?</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Real Madrid vs Dortmund Betting Preview</h2> <p>When looking at the head-to-head of these two teams and recent meetings, there are a lot of interesting statistics. Real Madrid have won four straight meetings with Borussia Dortmund, with the run starting in 2017. However, prior to that, they had recorded just four wins in 12 meetings with Dortmund (D5 L3). Sunday’s match will be the fifth time the two sides have met in a knockout game, with the Spanish outfit winning three of the last four, including the 2024 UEFA Champions League final.</p> <p>Aside from their record against the Germans, their record in this tournament is outstanding. Real Madrid are yet to be defeated in the competition (W16 D3 L0), winning 14 of their last 15 games (their draw to Al-Hilal in the group being the only blemish).</p> <p>However, <strong>Niko Kovac</strong> has turned BVB into a force of their own. Borussia Dortmund have won nine of their last 10 matches in all competitions (D1) and have won 15 of their 24 matches under the manager (D4 L5).&nbsp;</p> <p>Sunday’s encounter will likely be a game where the Germans attempt to press the Spanish side high, as they rank second in high presses against opponents (1,185 to Botafogo’s 1,508) and opposition half high presses (653 to PSG’s 671).</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Real Madrid vs Dortmund Betting Predictions</h2> <p>The <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/soccer/fifa-club-world-cup/fifa-club-world-cup/real-madrid-v-dortmund-9370663">latest Real Madrid vs Dortmund betting odds</a> do have the La Liga outfit as the strong favourites to advance to the next stage of the tournament.</p> <p><strong>Gonzalo Garcia</strong> could be a factor in this game, as he is the only player to be directly involved in at least one goal in all his team’s matches at this year’s FIFA Club World Cup. He has three goals and one assist so far, although Alonso could opt for<strong> Kylian Mbappe</strong>.</p> <p>Still, if Garcia gets on the pitch, the <strong>Anytime Goalscorer</strong> market might be a betting option. <strong>Serhou Guirassy</strong> got both against Monterrey for Dortmund, so he might also be worth a shot.</p> <p>Elsewhere, the <strong>Method Of Victory</strong> market and the<strong> Either Team in ET </strong>could be worth a shot.</p>
