Serhou Guirassy

Borussia Dortmund kick off their Club World Cup campaign when they clash with Brazilian side Fluminense on Tuesday evening (1700 BST).

Teams have been given the chance to add to their squads prior to the Club World Cup and Dortmund have done exactly that by adding Jobe Bellingham to their ranks.

The midfielder is following in the footsteps of his brother, Jude, by making the move to Germany and he has an immediate chance to prove himself in this expanded version of the Club World Cup.

They kick off their Group F campaign against the Brazilian side Fluminense, who are currently sixth in their league, which is taking a short break while this competition is taking place.

Dortmund will definitely fancy their chances of picking up a win in their Club World Cup opener and we've taken a look at the bets that hold the best value.

Serhou Guirassy to score first

Erling Haaland and Robert Lewandowski are just two of the freescoring strikers to have donned the iconic yellow shirt and there's a new kid on the block who is hoping to create the same legacy as that pair.

Serhou Guirassy has had a brilliant start at the Signal Iduna Park, scoring 34 times in his first season, 13 of which came in the Champions League.

He'll fancy his chances against Fluminense and we think he'll score first in their Club World Cup opener.

Borussia Dortmund to win

Fluminense haven't been at their best domestically, with them currently sixth in the league, four points off leaders Flamengo.

Dortmund finished fourth in the Bundesliga last season, but won their last five games to make sure that they're back in the Champions League for the 25/26 season.

We think that Dortmund should have the better of Fluminense in this game, so a victory for Niko Kovac's team is worth a punt.

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals

While we've been talking all about the German side, Fluminense have earned their place in the competition.

They won the Copa Libertadores in 2023 to earn their spot in the USA, so they're not to be underestimated.

We think this could be an entertaining game as Dortmund were firing on all cylinders in front of goal at the end of the domestic season, scoring 17 goals in their last five games.

Therefore, both teams to score and over 2.5 goals is one of our picks.
