Game Prediction
PSG and Borussia Dortmund will play the return match in the semi-finals of the Champions League on May 7, 2024. Luis Enrique and his wards are vying for the quadruple. The German club can only save the overall unsuccessful season in the European tournament.
Key statistics and trends:
- PSG won only 3 of 6 matches in the tournament at the home arena, including the opponent from Germany at the group stage.
- Borussia lost 3 times in 6 Champions League matches on away fields.
PSG – the shape of the team and its analysis: it is much easier at the inner arena
“The Parisians” have already defended their championship title, and it’s not for nothing that they have misfires like a 3-3 draw in the struggle with Le Havre – Luis Enrique straightforwardly but honestly said that they still won another trophy, in addition to the Super Cup. In France, the only thing left to do is win the cup – the match with Lens will give all the answers about this trophy. Still, the absolute priority for everyone is the Champions League. “Luce” stated after a 4-1 success in Catalonia that his players would have won in any scenario. It is reasonable to mention that “the Culés” had a 2-goal advantage before Araújo was sent off. In Germany, the opponent acted carefully and eventually won with a 1-0 score.
Borussia Dortmund – the shape of the team and its analysis: the decline at the inner arena was compensated by successes at the international one
“The Yellow and Blacks” became the vice-champion of the country in the previous season, tied on points with Bayern. And if it weren’t for the draw in the last round, the “silver salad bowl” would finally be returned. Nowadays, they are in 5th place in the Bundesliga and RB Leipzig will no longer catch up with them after the devastating defeat. Speaking about the Champions League, the group was won, with early entry into the play-offs, and Atlético was knocked out after the expected success with PSV. Moreover, if “the Bumblebees” played carefully before the quarter-finals (there were more than 2 goals per match only in the away victory over Milan – 3-1), then they had bright confrontations with “the Mattress Makers”: 1-2 and 4-2. As for the game with the representative of France, the team, having scored in the first half, were able to maintain this minimal advantage, not allowing the opponent to create much.
