Dortmund players arrive in Madrid

Both teams come into this fixture aware that the winner of the fixture will top the group. Madrid currently lies 2 points behind table toppers Dortmund aware that only a victory will see them snatch top spot. With no threat to their dominance in the group stages, this fixture will be a test for both the managers especially in terms of tactics.

The sides played out a thrilling 2-2 draw the last time these sides met and the Head to Head record across the past 5 fixtures shows 2 wins for each side with a draw sandwiched between. And if the teams stay true to the script then one might just see the unravelling of the German club at the Bernabeu.

Nevertheless, one expects Dortmund to swarm their opponents with their energy and vigour as they look for a historic victory at arguably the most famous stadium in the world. Madrid, on the other hand, come into this fixture on a high after snatching a draw in the El Clasico and one can expect them to go for the victory.
