Both teams score and concede in the first half. Dortmund has a significant percentage of goals (25.42%) in the 31-45 minute segment, and Gladbach also scores (20%) and concedes (56.25% of goals in 0-45 min) in the first half.

First Team to Score

Dortmund's attacking quality and tendency to score earlier in halves (e.g., 25.42% in 31-45 min), combined with Gladbach's early conceding (16.67% in 0-15 min, 18.75% in 16-30 min), makes them more likely to open the scoring.

No
