How the crowd called it

Why we called it

Dortmund opened the Bundesliga with a 2-0 win over Hamburg, Guirassy scoring, after a 5-0 cup rout, with only Sule and Beier doubtful. Villarreal are without Cabanes, Logan Costa, Kambwala and Mourino at the back and lost their last league game despite a Pepe goal. Clear home favourite with a leaky opponent, but Villarreal carry a counter-attacking threat, so a one-goal margin: 2-1.
