Prediction before the match Real Madrid vs Dortmund
This was Real Madrid's second consecutive clash against European opponents. Before that, they eliminated Juventus in the round of 16. Looking at the 1-0 score, fans can say that this victory came very difficult, but in fact, Real Madrid took the initiative completely, making Juve almost helpless in the second half. During the whole match, Real Madrid attacked the goal 21 times with 11 shots on target. Juventus only lost by 1 goal because their goalkeeper played so well.
The recent performance shows that Real Madrid seem to be warming up under new coach Xabi Alonso, who has only been in charge of Los Blancos since this tournament. Under Alonso's guidance, the Spanish giants have won 3 consecutive matches, conceding only 1 goal in the process. Since the beginning of the tournament, they have only conceded 2 goals, the fewest of the teams that have reached the quarter-finals.
The above figures have responded to a series of criticisms aimed at Real Madrid during this important transition period of the team. Real Madrid's chances of winning the FIFA Club World Cup have been significantly increased thanks to the recent performance. Today, against a familiar opponent, it can be believed that Real Madrid will continue their exciting streak.

Form, head-to-head record Real Madrid vs Dortmund
Real Madrid's form is stabilizing again. On the other side of the front line, Borussia Dortmund can consider this tournament a success when reaching the quarter-finals. Like Real, they have won their last 3 matches. In the last 15 matches, this team won 11, drew 2 and lost 2.
But don't judge Dortmund by those numbers. Almost all of their wins have come against weaker teams. Dortmund lost 0-4 against Barcelona and 0-2 against Leipzig. Their only impressive results have been a 2-2 draw with Bayern or a 3-1 win over Barcelona. But those wins came when Barca had a 4-0 lead in the first leg and appeared to relax in the second leg.
In terms of head-to-head, Real Madrid completely dominates Dortmund. In the last 4 meetings, they won all 4, scoring an average of more than 3 goals/match. Rarely is a team of European prestige inferior to Real Madrid like Dortmund. The German team's last victory over Real Madrid was 11 years ago.
It seems that with the disadvantage against Real Madrid in particular and big teams in general, Dortmund will find it difficult to make a surprise in tonight's clash.
Real Madrid vs Dortmund expected lineup
Real Madrid (4-3-3): Courtois; Alexander-Arnold, Rudiger, Huijsen, Fran Garcia; Valverde, Tchouameni, Bellingham; Mbappe, Gonzalo Garcia, Vinicius Jr
