Borussia performed exceptionally well in a challenging group and secured a place in the playoffs one match before the finish. Two key victories over “Newcastle” with a score of 1-0 away and 2-0 at home played a crucial role for Dortmund. In the last matchday, under Edin Terzic’s guidance, they earned three points against “Milan” away (1-3). It’s worth noting that throughout the tournament, “The Yellow and Blacks” demonstrated a solid defense, conceding only three goals and keeping a clean sheet in three matches. Today, the fate of the first place is at stake for the hosts they just need to avoid defeat to advance to the playoffs as group leaders. In the Bundesliga, “Borussia” hasn’t performed as well as in the Champions League, currently occupying the fifth position after 14 rounds. The team struggled to secure victories in the last two matches a draw against “Bayer” (1-1) and a defeat to “Leipzig” (2-3). Midfielder Emre Can, who is serving a suspension, will not be able to play today.
Throughout the group stage, PSG lacked consistency and approaches the final match without securing a spot in the playoffs. However, their destiny remains in their hands, as a victory today would propel them out of the group, potentially in first place. Concerningly, they couldn’t secure wins in the last two rounds, losing 1-2 to “Milan” away and drawing 1-1 at home against a weakened “Newcastle.” In Ligue 1, under Luis Enrique’s management, PSG stabilized their results and currently lead the league with 35 points after 15 rounds. They are on an eight-match winning streak in the national championship. Striker Usman Dembele won’t be available today due to suspension.
