#ChampionsLeague: Why Dortmund are favorites to reach UCL final

Date:

Tonight at the Parc de Prince, Paris St-German will take on Dortmund in the second leg of the semis of the UEFA Champions League.

Luis Enrique’s men may be playing at home and are more motivated than ever to win, especially with this season being Kylian Mbappe’s last in Paris.

The German side looks to be the favorite heading into this game after a vital 1-0 win at Signa Iduna Park in the first leg last week.

In the Bundesliga this season, Edin Terzić’s men have taken more points away (30) from home at the time of the first leg. Not even Bayern Munich can boast of such an away league record.

Dortmund possess a battle-hardy defense capable of soaking up all manner of pressure, with wingers Jadon Sancho and Karim Adeyemi providing pace on transition and Niclas Füllkrug’s textbook hold-up play.

A win at the Parc de Prince, like at the Allianz Arena, St. James’s Park, and the San Siro, would give the Bundesliga side every chance at the title since their last appearance in the final at Wembley.

After being upstaged by VFB Stuttgart and RB Leipzig, the Black and Yellow managed to snatch a place in next season’s Champions League after beating PSG at home in the first leg.

The 2023–24 European continental championships have been good for the German teams.

Bayern Leverkusen are en route to winning the treble after already winning the Bundesliga, and they are still in the chase for the German Cup and Europa League.
