This match is vital, with both teams aiming to gain an edge before the second leg in Paris. Dortmund, in their first Champions League semifinal since they reached an all-German final 11 years ago, hopes to take advantage of playing at home.
Dortmund’s journey has been intense, with a close 5-4 aggregate win over Atletico Madrid in the quarterfinals. However, they recently suffered a 4-1 defeat to RB Leipzig in domestic play, raising concerns about their ability to handle PSG’s powerful offense, featuring Kylian Mbappe.
Paris Saint-Germain brings Ousmane Dembele and Barcola to the Signal Iduna Park, even though key players like Presnel Kimpembe and Sergio Rico are absent. However, PSG’s depth should help offset these losses. On the other hand, Dortmund will rely on Mats Hummels to lead the defense, who is likely to play despite a minor injury, to keep PSG’s attack in check.
These teams have already met in the group stage, where PSG won 2-0 at home and drew 1-1 on the road. PSG leads their overall Champions League head-to-head record with 2 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw.
