Champions League 2019-20, Matchday 1: 4 Thrilling encounters to look out for 

#3 Borussia Dortmund VS FC Barcelona

One of Europe's finest stadium would be hosting one of Europe's finest team!!!

Borussia Dortmund, home to Europe's finest young talents would be facing some of the best players in the world in this clash. It would be a battle between Jadon Sancho and Frenkie De Jong for the title of Europe's most exciting young player.

There was a doubt regarding Lionel Messi's participation for this fixture. However, Barca has confirmed that the Argentine Superstar is fit for the clash. He could be on the bench and would come on later in the match.

Valverde must have already chosen two of his three forwards for the game as Luis Suarez He would have to choose between Ansu Fati and Carles Perez for the third forward and judging by the game against Valencia, he is going to opt for the teenage sensation.

The Barcelona coach has also found his perfect midfield trio in Arthur, Busquets and De Jong with all of them playing exceptionally against Valencia at home.

But it would be fascinating to see whether Valverde goes for experienced players like Rakitic and Vidal instead of young talents like Arthur and De jong.

Former Barcelona man, Paco Alcacer after joining Borussia Dortmund has risen like a phoenix from ashes and has become one of Europe's best strikers.

The Spanish striker has scored in every game he has played this season and has a total of seven goals for club and three for Spain. He would be very eager to score against his former club and prove some people wrong at Barcelona.

BVB is going to (possibly) play against a Messi-less Barcelona and they could even win against them if Lucian Favre gets his tactics right. He could take inspiration from Liverpool on how to exploit Barcelona when they're playing away from their turf. Needless to say, the fans would have to be at the back of their team always.

Possible outcome: Barcelona win but Dortmund don't go down easily.
