Where To Watch FC Barcelona vs Borussia Dortmund In UEFA Champions League for Free?

Anything is possible in the UEFA Champions League. In this clash between FC Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund, the La Liga and Bundesliga participants will strive to secure their place in the next stage. Some might already have the Catalan team marked for advancement. The Germans, however, will have a different perspective on the matter.

For the first leg, it is the Catalans who are the home side. With Liverpool now out of the way, there is no doubt that Barcelona has been the standout side in the UCL and are expected to go ahead and win the entire thing. They finished second in the league stage and since then have comprehensively beaten a good Benfica side over two legs. Their front 3 have been ridiculous this season, with Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha being among the top scorers in this season’s competition and Lamine Yamal being the absolute magician that he is.

Pedri is in the form of his life in midfield and others like Gavi and Frenkie De Jong are looking good too. As a defensive unit, they have been quite solid too, backed up by the veteran Wojciech Szczesny between the sticks. Their bench players like Ferran Torres and Fermin Lopez are in good knick too. The biggest problem for Hansi Flick’s side will be fatigue. Barca are a very young squad and they have been competing on three fronts across the season. A lot of their star players have already played a lot of minutes with Lamine Yamal and Pedri in particular looking quite leggy in their 1-1 draw versus Real Betis at the weekend.

That victory, combined with the situation that Dortmund is not enjoying their best season, currently sitting in eighth place in the Bundesliga, may establish the Liga leaders and Copa del Rey finalists as the obvious favorites for this match. However, it is common knowledge that Dortmund is a team that often performs exceptionally well when they hear the Champions League anthem. In fact, just under a year ago, they competed in the final of this very tournament against Real Madrid.

If Barca have been consistently good this season, Borussia Dortmund have been anything but. They have had a dreadful campaign in the Bundesliga and currently sit 8th. That being said, Dortmund have of late, been more of a cup side, as demonstrated by their run to the Champions League final last season. That will be something they look to emulate this time around as well. So far in the knockouts, they have narrowly beaten Lille over two legs and had previously gone past Sporting CP with ease.

The man to watch out for from the German side is without a doubt Serhou Guirassy. Only Raphinha has more goal contributions or goals than the Dortmund striker in the Champions League this season. Another interesting player is January signing Carney Chukwuemeka, who made his first start this weekend and scored and assisted. Centre-back Nico Schlotterbeck is excellent in general and has added corner-taking to his strengths.
