THE PREDICTION

There’s nothing but pride to play for in this contest with Borussia Dortmund and Besiktas set to finish in third and fourth respectively. It has been a particularly disappointing campaign for the German side as they were expected to advance to the knockout stages but the loss of Erling Haaland to injury badly affected them. The Norwegian star could line up here but either way, they should have too much for Besiktas, who have lost all their Group C games have looked out of their depth in the competition.
