Barcelona vs Borussia Dortmund. Dreaming of Champions League Glory? 🏆 Barcelona definitely is! They’re chasing a historic quadruple this season, having already bagged the Spanish Super Cup. Despite a 1-1 stumble against Real Betis recently, Barça stretched their unbeaten run to 22 competitive games (W18, D4) and sit comfortably four points clear atop La Liga. 📈

Now standing in their way? Borussia Dortmund! But with Hansi Flick boasting a flawless 6-0 record against Dortmund, Barça will feel confident heading into this clash. One of those victories was a thrilling 3-2 win in Germany during the group stage!

Meanwhile, Dortmund are simply trying to finish strong in the Bundesliga. They roll into Spain on the back of two straight league wins, including a solid 4-1 thrashing of Freiburg. However, history isn’t on their side — Dortmund have never beaten Barcelona (D2, L3) and have managed just three wins in 20 visits to Spain (D5, L12).

⚡ Fun fact: Dortmund have scored in each of their last 11 Champions League away games — so they might still have a surprise up their sleeve!

Barcelona vs Borussia Dortmund: Tactical Breakdown 🔬

Barcelona will probably give possession and quick attacking play top priority, therefore sticking with their trademark 4-3-3 formation. Expect Yamal and Raphinha to take advantage of the wide spaces with De Jong and Pedri running the midfield.

Looking to absorb pressure and counter quickly, Dortmund will most likely line up in a 4-2-3-1 configuration. Up forward, Adeyemi’s pace and Guirassy’s strength will be crucial; Can and Özcan have to work extra to undermine Barça’s inventiveness.

Key Matchups:

• De Jong vs Emre Can (midfield control)
• Lewandowski vs Kobel (sharp shooter vs agile keeper)
• Yamal vs Ryerson (pace vs physicality)

Predicted Lineups 📋

Barcelona: Possible XI: Szczesny; Kounde, Cubarsi, Inigo Martinez, Balde; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Ferran Torres, Raphinha; Lewandowski
