Dortmund forward Reus predicts few scoring chances against Atletico Madrid

Berlin, Oct 23 (IANS) Borussia Dortmund forward Marco Reus predicted on Tuesday that his football club will have a few scoring chances against Atletico Madrid in their upcoming UEFA Champions League group stage match.The German captain added that his squad had so far been effective when taking chances and hoped this would hold true in Wednesday's home game, reports Efe."I think patience will be the key.
