Dortmund is playing catch-up

Borussia Dortmund enjoyed returning to Champions League football this season, and their goal is to play European football in the new year. Will they survive the five obstacles ahead to land first or second in the pool and progress to the knockout stages of the Champions League? Perhaps you fancy them to secure third place and fall into the safety of the Europa League. Fans were full of optimism heading into this competition, but the draw hasn’t been kind to them, throwing the Germans into the deep end. They share Group F with Wednesday’s opponents. PSG and Newcastle United.

The pool is already taking shape, and Borussia Dortmund is playing catch-up after losing their opening game. The Bundesliga outfit sank to the bottom of the pool at the earliest opportunity following a 2-0 defeat in Paris. PSG were the favourites to win that game and lived up to expectations, winning 2-0 and bagging all three points. The French Ligue 1 champions and Champions League contenders got the desired result thanks to goals from Mbappe and Hakimi, with the goal settled inside the hour. Better is expected from Dortmund.

Milan takes a draw

AC Milan entered this season’s Champions League as a team expected to make it through the groups and into the later rounds. With the rub of the green, there’s no reason why AC Milan can’t go all the way. They have the squad, fanbase, manager, and budget to make a dent in this tournament, and the leading pundits believe they can become major players. But they must escape a tough group to stand any chance of getting their hands on European football’s most illustrious tournament.

Group F is, arguably, this season’s ‘group of death,’ we’ll lose two great teams at the end of the six games. Both teams involved in this game can go all the way, but it wouldn’t be a shock to see Newcastle United sneak through or PSG lift the trophy. AC Milan must focus on the here and now, especially after drawing their opening game of the pool. The Italians battled to a draw with newcomers Newcastle from the English Premier League, with the Italians and English sides ending goalless. A marked improvement is required in the attacking areas if Milan is to shoot down Dortmund.

Borussia v AC Milan Prediction

Borussia Dortmund enjoys the home advantage, and despite it only being game two of their Champions League campaign, this game isn’t far off a must-win for the locals. The most challenging element of this group for Dortmund will be catching up if they lose their opening two games. They simply can’t afford to fall six points behind the leaders.

AC Milan had chances to beat Newcastle in Italy last time but only have themselves to blame for taking one point instead of three. They travel to Germany knowing another level finish wouldn’t be the worst result but could see them drop off the pace, allowing PSG to take charge of the pool. A draw would suit AC Milan more than Borussia Dortmund.
