FIFA Club World Cup 4/1 Bet Builder Tips – Fluminense v Borussia Dortmund
The final Group D fixture of the 2025 Club World Cup brings together South American champions Fluminense and Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund. Kick-off is 5pm UK time on Thursday and both clubs know a win will secure a place in the semi-finals.
Dortmund come into the match with momentum after a convincing 3-1 win over Los Angeles FC. That result gave them a strong platform in the group and allowed them to settle into the conditions in the United States. Their attack looked sharp, the midfield controlled the tempo and the performance overall was clinical.
Fluminense enter the competition at this stage and bring with them plenty of pedigree. They lifted the Copa Libertadores last year and possess a mix of seasoned experience and intelligent ball players. Marcelo, Felipe Melo and Ganso are all likely to feature and bring a calmness that can help control periods of the game.
The challenge for Fluminense is whether they can live with Dortmund’s pace, intensity and sharp movement. The German side are well coached, disciplined in their press and carry a threat from multiple angles. With players like Adeyemi, Malen and Brandt all fit and firing, this could be a real test for the Brazilian outfit.

Why we're backing this Bet Builder Tip 💭
Dortmund and Draw (Double Chance)
Dortmund have lost just one of their last six matches and arrive with match fitness already in their legs. They looked confident and well organised in their opening fixture and should have too much energy and quality to lose here. The draw still keeps this leg alive and gives us cover if Fluminense dig in.
Over 7.5 Match Corners
Dortmund won eight corners in their opener and regularly hit these numbers across league and cup matches. Fluminense averaged just under five corners per game during their Copa Libertadores campaign and will push on if chasing the game. The tempo of this match should create chances at both ends.
Dortmund to Have 5 or More Shots on Target
Dortmund registered seven shots on target against Los Angeles and created chances from wide areas and central overloads. With the front three likely to rotate and drag defenders out of position, this line looks very achievable against a Fluminense side who allow space when stretched.
Over 3.5 Match Cards
This is likely to be a competitive and physical contest. Fluminense commit on average 14 fouls per match and often break up play when out of possession. Dortmund are no strangers to strong tackles either and both teams will be pushing hard for a result. The referee should be kept busy here.
Over 2.5 Goals
Four goals were scored in Dortmund’s first match and this fixture has the makings of another open contest. Fluminense have seen over 2.5 goals in seven of their last nine fixtures and with both sides capable of scoring, we’re expecting another lively encounter.
