Match Preview
Borussia Dortmund will face an important first leg in the semi-final stage of the Champions League this week. The German side will likely need to claim victory to enhance their chances of progression through to the next round against PSG. However, they have only recorded one victory from their last clashes against the Parisians.
But, it could be worth considering PSG’s poor away record against Germany, as they have never won an away match against Dortmund. PSG have suffered one defeat and have played out two draws in their last three visits. The most recent clash between these sides came in the group stage this term, with the teams playing out a 1-1 draw at Signal Iduna Park.

Borussia Dortmund vs PSG Prediction
All the pressure will be on Dortmund in this first leg, as they will likely need to take something to defend back to France. We could see the hosts landing victory based on their home record in the Champions League after going ten matches without defeat at Signal Iduna Park.
