UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[DanWalker]

Borussia Dortmund are aiming to reach their first UEFA Champions League final since 2013, as they would meet Paris-Saint Germain (PSG) for the semifinal second-leg game on tonight. Borussia Dortmund will play with the already-crowned Ligue 1 champions to defend their one-goal advantage, as the first leg beat 1-0.


Also, Borussia Dortmund claimed their only Champions League trophy in 1997, while Paris Saint-Germain losing the 2020 final to another German Bundesliga side, Bayern Munich, 1-0.


Dortmund's performance in the home match was very composed. Dortmund managed to perform well as they secured a narrow 1-0 victory. To be honest, I don't see a good performance from PSG players in the first leg. I expected better performance from PSG players. However, PSG's overall performance was a bit slow.

PSG will definitely be looking to win today's home match. But Dortmund is not a weak team. Although Dortmund's performance in the Bundesliga has been erratic, Dortmund will try hard to qualify for the Champions League final. Since Dortmund won the first leg. Therefore, if today's match can be drawn, Dortmund will be able to qualify for the final. It will be very difficult for PSG players to break Dortmund's defense today.

Good stats. Paris Saint German will be looking to have another qualification to the champions league final for another time after several failed attempt for many years. One goal disadvantage against them in the first leg of the champions league won’t cause them a lot to or think about not winning this match tonight. They are known for comebacks in the past and even this season, they already did one in the quarterfinals. I have hope in them to win tonight but not an 100% hope because football can be funny at times and what we don’t expect becomes the reality and outcome of the match.

Borussia Dortmund are also not a mediocre team swing how far they’ve come in the competition and are already on their trail to the finals. They also did a comeback in the quarterfinals that gave them a chance to be in the semifinals now. After their win against Paris Saint German in the first leg, they should strengthen their defense more because with a lose defense, they can easily be defeated by Paris Saint German tonight. Looking to see an entertaining match tonight between this two teams.

[Obim34]

Remember, they lost the first game against Barcelona too, but then they made a great come back, which is why I think it is quite possible for PSG to have another comeback. Of course it's hard to do that twice in a row, but it wouldn't be impossible, plus I believe that on squad quality alone PSG is a better team than Dortmund, to be fair Dortmund is a better "team" overall, because they play better together, but PSG still could win with individual talent.

Based on individual quality I think Barcelona is better than Dortmund. At that time I thought Barcelona would qualify for the semifinals because they had won the first leg. But PSG was able to win the second leg and advance to the semifinals. They will probably try to do the same thing here, but I think it will be difficult. Araujo's red card in the first half changed the game. Dortmund will not repeat the same mistake. I think if it was an 11 vs 11 match then it would be difficult for PSG to win the match. I predict that this match will be decided in extra time.

Barcelona and Dortmund are good teams, personally I can't just pick Barcelona over Dortmund, we can forget about stats tho, but let's speak on current form, Barcelona are fading out despite having those players. Dortmund are more equipped to win a game than Barcelona, see how they lost the second spot in the La Liga to Girona.

The match between PSG and Barcelona, we all know it was clearly because of the red card Barca lost the game, in as much as PSG won the match they  are no good aswell even in today's game I still doubt if they would be able to step up to Dortmund, if they succeed then they are only trying to prove who is at home and to their fans. If at all Dortmund won PSG in their home already then I would have said Dortmund would win them with ease in their home but it is the other way round so probably, who knows PSG best form today might actually secure them to the Finals.

[QueenVera]

PSG will playing as a host today and we all know PSG was lost from Dortmund in the first leg with final score 1-0 and if PSG want to advances to the final match then PSG have to win with 2 goals margin or more and some people predict PSG can able to do that because they are very strong in all competitions at their home but i don't think it will be so easy because Dortmund is the team who hard to beated and as a dark horses team Dortmund potentially can makes PSG gets in trouble so this match will be so tight

We all know Dortmund current position at Bundesliga is 5th place and there is possibility they will be failed to playing in this competition again next season unless Dortmund can able to gets the trophy so obviously they have to hard struggling for this match and not lost but for PSG they are dreaming Champion League trophy and they have good chances to realized it this season however regarding the outcomes of this match the bookmakers give low odds for PSG win @1.47 and seems they are very confident PSG can able to overcomes Dortmund today and looking forward to see the match result whether PSG can able to win or not

The semi finals will be one thrilling one and the match is still very much open and could go the way of any of the two teams. Dortmud have the lead and you can tell they have a strong fighting spirit and as such, you will get scared for PSG and how much chance they have against this fierce Dortmund side. PSG too are playing at home and in their home ground.

 They’re one very fierce side and with the help of their fans gearing and cheering them up they can be able to overturn the lead and get the final spot. PSG have a very fast and swift attack and at this point, you can already start imagining how they’ll be running riots against the Dortmund defense. Dortmund have their own strength too and they’re clinical with their chances and can do the big magic that could hurt PSG.

 In this year’s campaign you can see how they have been resilient in their performance and i think this should be a thing of worry for PSG. ⁠this match will be tightly contested and I think PSG will be having the win and it won’t be like the last match where they lost chances. I think Enrique will be able to use the right tactics to help this PSG side get the final spot.

When you come to German Bundesliga borussia Dortmund could be seen as a big name after Bayern Munich for the past decade it has been so. But in the recent generation Champions League history we know that PSG is more popular and fearful in the champions league than borussia Dortmund. Ordinarily I obviously counted Dortmund out of this race immediately they were appeared with PSG. But now it is becoming more obvious that borussia Dortmund has a more organized team than PSG. While PSG has a good team their strength lies on solo performance of Mbappe. This cannot be said of Dortmund where everybody contributes equally to the game. But when you talk about Champions League experience I would say that the dudes in the Paris side are more experienced in the Champions League and if kylian mbappé could pull 50% of the weight he did in the last World Cup finals against Argentina, I bet that he would go home rejoicing tonight likewise all other French loving people. It's interesting that both tonights match and tomorrow's match will all be interesting because first leg didn't decide the match.

I agree with you. The Barcelona team is more experienced than Dortmund on the Champions League platform. However, considering the current form, Barcelona cannot be called strong. The performance of the Barcelona team was quite erratic. And that was the main reason for the defeat against PSG. As PSG managed to defeat Barcelona, it cannot be said that the same result will be achieved against Dortmund.

The match between PSG and Barcelona, we all know it was clearly because of the red card Barca lost the game, in as much as PSG won the match they  are no good aswell even in today's game I still doubt if they would be able to step up to Dortmund, if they succeed then they are only trying to prove who is at home and to their fans.

PSG did not perform well in the first half in the second leg match against Barcelona. Even so, the team won by a big margin and qualified for the semi-finals. But defeating the Dortmund team will not be easy. Dortmund's defense is strong. Dortmund's defenders performed well in the first leg. I look forward to seeing how Luis Enrique strategizes today. I don't think PSG's overall gameplay is very strong. I don't see any chance of PSG winning unless the match strategy is good.

We know that both teams want to go to the final. In my opinion, Borussia Dortmund will have a hard time today. Paris Saint Germain in France definitely aimed to win against them and researched them down to the smallest detail. The audience support will also be on the side of the French. I'm very curious to see which team will move on at the end of the night.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Let's go, the rematches are on!

First we are starting with the PSG - Dortmund one today. I've already shared my opinion this one though. I really hope to see Dortmund reaching the finale but I don't think they can if they don't score any goal tonight. I guess PSG wouldn't be that unlucky this time.

Tomorrow there is the biggest game, Real Madrid - Bayern Munich.    Bayern Munich wasted a really golden opportunity. They had a chance to win but that penalty left them in a tight spot. Honestly I don't think Real Madrid would throw it as of now. I expect a win in regular time.

[Fuso.hp]

Im gonna expect a PSG comeback and a Real MAdrid simple win without so much margin against Munich for this two second games of the series.

I dont think PSG is gonna fail in two games in row, and also i dont think Bayern Munich can be the solid it was in Germany and also the lucky because they find two super fast goals who overthrow the whole game.

There is certainly a chance for PSG to turn around in the Champions League semi-final against Dortmund in the second leg. The outcome of the second leg match will depend a lot on Mbappe. Just as Dortmund will try to stop Mbappe, PSG will try to bring out the maximum performance from Mbappe. PSG may be one goal behind Dortmund at the end of the first leg match but it is not a big deal as PSG can definitely come back from this situation. PSG's best plan will be to focus more on counter attack as well as playing defensively and if PSG get half chances then they should make full use of those half chances. I want PSG to qualify for the Champions League final.

Playing in away game against a team that has so many superstars are not an easy task for dortmund. Even though it leads the game with one goal aggregates but this is not really helpful for the club in order to qualify for the final of UCL. The club must able to beat PSG by adding more scores in this game.
So, scoring is a must in this game in order to beat PSG and goes to the final of UCL this season.

[rahmad2nd]

we'll see the situation later. The PSG coach certainly saw the problems they faced in the first leg. so they have to make a strategy to solve it. what will be a problem for PSG is when their strategy might be successfully anticipated by Dortmund.
I believe this is a decisive and important match for both teams. they will make every effort to win. however, the results will be seen today. those who are stronger with strategy and preparedness will win.

I know how PSG dreams of lifting the Champions League trophy. they are now very close and need a little more effort. everything depends on their struggle today.

If I refer to the various prediction references that are my reference for this battle, it seems that both teams will continue to use the same pattern and system. Luis Enrique is most likely with his 4-3-3 system. or you could rely on a single striker, namely Mbappe, on the front line, while Dortmund uses a 4-2-3-1 pattern. In this match, Paris Saint Germain will play totally all out to achieve victory and avenge their defeat when they visit Signal Iduna Park, Dortmund's headquarters.
IMO, I'm sure Enrique has prepared tactics and strategies to overthrow Dormtund at PSG headquarters itself. My guess is that PSG will play aggressively right from the moment the first half whistle sounds. In this match, I side with PSG to win the match.

Talking about Dortmund, in this match, for me, Terzic has to be careful when his team plays at their opponent's home ground. because, it will not be easy for Dortmund to repeat the victory like in the first leg match. We can compare based on the odds provided by the bookies, PSG with @1.49, while Dortmund @5.80.
Theoretically, if you refer to the betting market, PSG should be able to do their job well. However, whatever the results, we will know the results of this match when it is held. well, interesting let's wait.

So, scoring is a must in this game in order to beat PSG and goes to the final of UCL this season.

Dortmund don't need to score today to reach the final, 0:0 will be enough for them and that will suit them. But PSG have a good attack, and since they definitely need to score today, they will most likely be able to do it. I understand that Dortmund were able to win the first leg and so far have some advantage going into this match, but this could quickly change if PSG can score an early goal. Enrique also understands the importance of playing defensively, they cannot concede goals today, or they will have to score even more.

PSG, who have never won a title in the Champions League, should not miss the opportunity they have now. Because unlike Dortmund, which has already won the Champions League title. And this season, who knows, PSG can get it. Last season Manchester City were also able to win the Champions League trophy for the first time. So it would be great if this season PSG could also win the Champions League Trophy. But the problem is that even if PSG manages to qualify for the final, the opponents that will be waiting are really of a very high level. Be it Real Madrid or Bayern, both are very strong. But it is most likely that Real Madrid will qualify for the final. Meanwhile, PSG's fate is actually still quite difficult to predict. Because they were behind Dortmund 0-1 on aggregate in the first leg.

[Smack That Ace]

That only happens if Dortmund does not score in the second leg but it sounds impossible to happen caused by dortmund is also equal to the PSG.

PSG has a longer rest period compared to Dortmund, this is can be an opportunity for PSG to do intensive training in order to improve their strategy and to cover weaknesses in the first leg 1. I can't say Dortmund won't be able to score goals, but I also won't say it's impossible for PSG can keep a clean sheet in this match and scored at least 2 goals. Everything is still possible.

Yes indeed, PSG previously did not have a scheduled match in Ligue 1 so, when first leg was completed and then PSG got more or longer rest time compared to Dortmund. Because anyway, after the first leg and then Dortmund still have a scheduled match in the Bundesliga and with such a difference, it looks like PSG is really able to maximize and or take advantage of moments like this to turn things around in the second leg today. But indeed, although it may look easy for PSG but for some reason, I believe Dortmund is still able to provide good resistance in this second leg, because Dortmund will also certainly defend the aggregate victory it has in the first leg.

This match is still going to be very competitive. Yes, people are expecting PSG to win this match. But I think Dortmund is not going to let go of the advantage that they have from the first leg so easily. I believe there is a genuine chance for Dortmund to actually win this one and go to the finals. PSG is a team that is pretty inconsistent at times. But at the same time, the coach of PSG looks to be very determined to win the Champions League.

So I don’t know what to expect. Everyone is saying that PSG is going to win. But I cannot shake the feeling that probably Dortmund has a chance, regardless of how they have performed throughout the whole season. And I definitely wouldn’t have said that if they did not have any advantage going into the second leg. Let’s see if they can actually leverage the advantage in their favor. But they will have to keep Mbappé quiet. And that is definitely a very hard job to do.

Dortmund can reach the final if they can mention the one goal gap, because I know it will be very difficult for Dortmund to qualify tonight because PSG will not make any mistakes that would allow Dortmund to score another goal. In my opinion, PSG will eliminate Dortmund in the match since they are playing at home and will not allow Dortmund to win tonight. Dortmund will only play a defensive game to protect the one goal because PSG performed well in the first leg but did not have luck with goals in the match. We shall see what happens tonight, but everyone feels PSG will defeat Dortmund because they are superior to them, unless you are a Dortmund supporter. Football changes and he will surprise us and see Dortmund defeat psg in the second leg again. Real Madrid and Munich will be tough match to watch because I don't think psg or Dortmund anyone that qualify to the final can defeat Madrid or Munich in the final.

It looks like it will be interesting if this season's Champions League final will be a match between Dortmund v Bayern Munich because after all,if Real Madrid qualify for thefinal then it is certain that Real Madrid will win the Champions League trophy. However, if for example the Champions League final isbetween Dortmund v Bayern Munich then at least the two teams have an equally good chance of getting the trophy. But indeed, it seems that thisscenario will be difficult tohappen because PSG and Real Madrid are the favorite teams to qualify for the finalmatch. Even though PSG is still in a situation of losing 1-0 on aggregate but still,based on the available odds, it also shows that PSG is still very much the favorite to qualify.

I know how PSG dreams of lifting the Champions League trophy. they are now very close and need a little more effort. everything depends on their struggle today.

One of PSG's weaknesses in the first leg was that they were not good at finishing when they had opportunities to score. PSG also had difficulty developing their game because Dortmund was really good in all areas. Luis Enrique knows where his team's weaknesses lie in the first leg and he will try to give his best in the second leg soon.

PSG's defense also seems incomplete due to Lucas Hernández's injury in the first leg. Lucas Beraldo was trusted by Luis Enrique to replace the injured Hernandez, meanwhile Luis Enrique also changed the attacking composition where he played Gonçalo Ramos from the first half as a center forward instead of Kylian Mbappe. There are good hopes to see Kylian Mbappe et al win this match, but I want to see how they do it from the early minutes.

[Hvdv]

Im gonna expect a PSG comeback and a Real MAdrid simple win without so much margin against Munich for this two second games of the series.

I want PSG to qualify for the Champions League final.

For me, both teams deserved to go to the final. Considering the great game they played against Barcelona, ​​PSG played great. They can show us a similar one today. The only unlucky team might be the team that gets a red card early. So players will need to be very careful. The player who receives a red card in this match will have made the worst move of his career and will leave his team alone. Let's say his team reaches the final, he will not play in the final. I guess a player's dream is to play in the UCL final. To prevent this from happening, all players must play with extreme caution.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

I think it’d be a great story if Dortmund got to the final but I have a feeling PSG will really go at them from the first minute tonight.

I think PSG will have too much for the Germans tonight but I am rooting for Dortmund.
