DOR Vs PSG Dream11 Team, Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Two exuberant attacking units take to the middle today in what promises to be an intriguing attacking affair.
Two of the most progressive sides in the footballing arena this season, when Borussia Dortmund and PSG lock heads for today’s tie, we are going to be in for an intoxicating brew. These are two exemplary attacking units, sides who’ll come hot out of the blocks in this fixture in a bid to take a sizeable lead before they met once again in the gap of a few weeks.
PSG saw their 9 match winning spree be curtailed at the weekend after they ended up drawing 4-4 with Amiens in Ligue 1 but the side will hardly be deterred by that result. They are currently on a 23 match unbeaten spree and with the unit holding a tearaway lead atop of their league, all ther attention has been focused on this impending Champions League fixture.
Elsewhere, Borussia Dortmund are making an advent into this fixture in the wake of an emphatic 4-0 drubbing of Frankfurt. It took their tally upto 22 goals scored in their last 5 fixtures, a number which is testament to how pulsating their attacking plays have been, ones they’ll be looking to emanate as they look to wipe the floor with a defensively weak PSG outfit.
Lucien Favre, Borussia Dortmund manager said ahead of the fixture: “To prepare for the match we’ve taken a look at a few of Paris’s games. We’ve analysed their players and we’re ready for them. But they are a dangerous team, finishing well ahead of Real Madrid in the group stage. That says it all. But, in the end, it will be our performance that counts.”
DOR Vs PSG Probable Winner
This is going to be a goal feast with two extradonaire attacking sides sparing no expensive in a bid to pile on the goals. What favours Borussia Dortmund in this open ended tie is their slightly more well versed backline, one which will ensure that the side is able to clampdown on PSG’s attacks.
