Bayern Munchen takes on Dortmund in Champions League Final
It's
an all - German affair in the 2012 - 13 UEFA Champions League Final on
May 25 at Wembley Stadium as Borussia Dortmund, the champions of the
Bundesliga of the last two seasons, take on FC Bayern Munchen, the newly
- crowned kings of the top flight in German football.
Now I don't know about you but let me just point out
that while many football fans were looking forward to seeing Lionel
Messi take on Cristiano Ronaldo in a Barcelona - Real Madrid
confrontation in the final of the European competition, having Borussia
Dortmund and Bayern Munchen face off instead as they look to make a name
for themselves similar to the prestige that the two fallen Spanish
clubs have on the international stage makes it an interesting and
intriguing match - up to see, to say the least.
Making
this year's UEFA Champions League Finals even more exciting is the fact
that Borussia Dortmund has a score to settle with their German rivals.
Dortmund, listed by Ladbrokes, BetVictor and SBOBET at 4.50 to
beat FC Bayern Munchen, head into the match - up looking to avenge the
way the Bavarians overthrew them from their throne in the Bundesliga
this season because in case you didn't know, Bayern showed all year just
how much better they are in this campaign, at the expense of the
Borussians.
After
winning the premier domestic competition in German football for two
straight years back in 2012 and 2011, Borussia Dortmund watched
helplessly as Bayern blazed through the Bundesliga in this campaign,
putting on a considerable gap between them and the rest of the field to
win the league championship in convincing fashion with still games to
spare. Of course, that probably humiliated Dortmund a bit and you just
know they've been looking for an opportunity to get back at their rivals
since. Beating the newly - crowned champions of the Bundesliga in the
final of the 2012 - 13 UEFA Champions League on May 25 will let Dortmund
do just that.
Dubbed by some football pundits as the
team of destiny, Borussia Dortmund is the trendy pick to win this year's
European tournament. It's been 15 long years since the Borussians
played in the final of the UEFA Champions League and their return to the
final dance for the European Cup couldn't have come at a more opportune
time than this year, at the conclusion of their two - year title reign
in German football's top flight, a conclusion that was forced upon
Dortmund with the way Bayern dominated the competition this season.
Lifting that European Cup on the grand stage of the
UEFA Champions League Final would mean everything for Borussia Dortmund,
with their last win in the European tournament being way back in 1997.
And with the way they've been playing in this year's competition, it's
pretty obvious how bad the Borussians want it again, so much so that
they would go undefeated from the beginning of the competition to the
first leg of their semi - final tiff with Spanish football giants Real
Madrid, to date still the most successful side in the history of the
Champions League, as the Borussians came out on top against the Primera
Division powerhouse 4 - 1 to put their side in an excellent position to
advance.
And
despite the fact that Borussia Dortmund would lose for the first time
in the 2012 - 13 UEFA Champions League in the return match of their semi
- final encounter with Real Madrid at the Bernabeu 2 - 0, their
impressive drubbing of the La Liga's silverbacks would prove to be
enough as Dortmund booked their spot for Wembley by winning on
aggregate, 4 - 3.
Borussia Dortmund would love to get what would only be
the second Champions League tournament win in the history of their
club. Bayern Munchen ending up in their crosshairs just made it even
more enticing for Dortmund on May 25 because now, not only will they
play for the European Cup, they will also be playing for that sweet
taste of revenge against the very side that knocked them off their seat
at the top of the German Bundesliga.
However,
the new BundesLiga kings will also be playing for something other than
the European Cup and that's to prove that they are still one of the
teams to beat on the grand stage of European football. FC Bayern
Munchen, listed by Bet365 at 1.75 to beat Borussia Dortmund,
headed into the 2012 - 13 UEFA Champions League tournament looking to
pick up where they left off last year, when they lost to the English
football giants, Chelsea FC, in the final of this very European
competition last season, getting beaten on penalties 4 - 3, following a 1
- 1 draw in regulation time.
That wasn't the first time Bayern got that close to
the European Cup as they were also in the final of the Champions League
in 2010, when they lost to the Italian side Inter Milan. The Bavarians
last won this tournament back in 2001 and, after their runner - up
finishes in 2010 and 2012, you just know these guys are hoping that the
third time's the charm.
Will
you make the trendy choice and pick Borussia Dortmund or will you bet
on Bayern Munchen to win this first all - German encounter in a
Champions League Final at Wembley Stadium on May 25?
