I think it s the right pick, but it's not obvious. Dortmund is probably the toughest matchup Bayern get get in whole of Europe. As you can see from recent results, since Klopp is at Dortmnd they have a great record against Bayern...not sure why, but he simply seems to have Bayern s number. At least in means for today that Dortmund will have no respect and believe they can win..all the rest of Europe was frightened and played like that.Still key factor for me are: Goetze for Dortmund out, Bayern wants it soo much more after last 3 years of disappointment. they were in similar situation when they won last time...losing vs. ManU (robbed by them)...bouncing back and winning ECL vs. Valencia. If we are honest they got robbed by Chelsea last year also, but they bounced back and were simply running through the competition...I simply think that destiny is also on their side. The only scary thing are Klopp s stats vs. Bayern

there is one more thing if you look at recent results...the over is not soo obvious as everybody things...it s actually more an under game in the past...even if Dortmund loses it has been always close...considering the "final" factor, we will probably see after first 20 min. if it s over or under....this will need an early goal to go over.
i know it makes no sense to most people but i think the fact its bayern 3rd final in a few years is a big advantage. Chelski and inter had the experience of final matches like this so they didn't get caught up with the nerves. The other non-factor i guess is munich won both 1 game cup matches vs dortmund - super cup and pokla ... to me any team will settle for draws in league play vs the other top clubs - but in these one off matches the better team tends to win (sort of). Bayern 2 wins in 2 cup matches...finish the year great and has proven they can win away from home.. barca, juve and the best club in the whole world at the Emirates. Dortmund not so proven away from home, 0-2 in one off matches and ended the year very poorly...to me bayern win in 90 mins and it is what i bet but i thought they'd win last year vs chelski
i do wish i was at Wembley listening to the german songs though...must be nuts
