Niko Kovač will want to seal qualification for the next round of the Club World Cup when they face Ulsan on Wednesday. They’ll have to do this without center-back Nico Schlotterbeck, defensive midfielder Emre Can, and defensive midfielder Salih Özcan.

After two rounds of fixtures, Kovač might want to rotate his squad to inject freshness, avoid fatigue, and ensure that his side are ready for the clash against Uslan and to seal passage to the round of 16 of the Club World Cup.

Borussia Dortmund predicted lineup vs Ulsan: (3-4-1-2): Kobel; Bensabaini, Anton, Süle; Svensson, Groß, Nmecha, Couto; Bellingham; Guirassy, Brandt.

Ulsan Team News

Ulsan are winless in two outings in Group F of the Club World Cup. In the two losses, they scored twice and conceded five times. They sit at the bottom of their pool and have already been eliminated from the tournament.

The club trail third-placed Mamelodi Sundowns by three points, but crucially, Ulsan are four points behind the top two sides (Fluminense and Borussia Dortmund), who have four points each. This means that mathematically, they cannot finish second in the group, even if they win against Borussia.

Ulsan have not reported any new injuries or suspensions ahead of Wednesday’s meeting. However, manager Kim Pan-gon might want to rotate his squad and give the fringe players a chance as the K League 1 side bows out of the CWC.

Ulsan predicted lineup vs Borussia Dortmund: (5-3-2): Cho; Ludiwgson, Jae-ik Lee, Kim, Trojack, Kang; Jin-hyun Lee, Bojanic, Ko; Farias, Um.

Borussia Dortmund vs Ulsan Prediction 

• Pick: Borussia Dortmund To Win
• Odds: 1.208 (22Bet)
• Correct score prediction: Borussia Dortmund 4-1 Ulsan

Borussia Dortmund have upped their game after the opening day 0-0 draw against Fluminense. Their 3-4 victory over Mamelodi Sundowns demonstrated their attacking potency, with goals from Guirassy, Nmecha, and Bellingham showing that their attackers are clicking at the tournament.

The 3-4-1-2 formation adopted by Niko Kovač offers Dortmund a platform to be solid while retaining an attacking edge when they move the ball quickly to their offence. This will be a common feature on Wednesday.

In contrast, Ulsan have shown weaknesses defensively with their inability to keep a clean sheet, conceding five times while scoring just twice. Their frailties, even in their 5-3-2 formation, mean that Kim Pan-gon and his charges will find it difficult to live with an experienced and dynamic Borussia attack. 

These dynamics heavily back a Dortmund reign, condemning Ulsan to a winless campaign. 

Borussia Dortmund vs Ulsan Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: W Borussia Dortmund And Both Teams To Score – Yes
• Odds: 2.625(22Bet)

Borussia Dortmund have displayed an irrepressible attacking dynamism, especially against Mamelodi Sundowns, to show they are likely to get on the scoresheet in the clash with Ulsan.

In contrast, Ulsan have revealed defensive challenges, especially in their 4-2 defeat by Fluminense. At the same time, they demonstrated a potency in attack, which means they can hurt teams when they get into dangerous areas.

These dynamics show that while Dortmund are favoured to win, Ulsan have a chance to score. This backs a win for the Bundesliga side without keeping a clean sheet in the last Group F match for these clubs.
