These two sides last met in 2018

In Atletico Madrid’s recent matches, they secured two victories, notably defeating Inter Milan in penalties. However, they suffered a setback when they lost against their rival Barcelona 3-0, before bouncing back with a 2-1 victory against Villareal. Atletico have displayed formidable strength at home throughout the season. They are expected to give their utmost effort to gain a favourable advantage heading into the second leg.

Borussia Dortmund suffered a surprising defeat to Stuttgart in their home, but before this defeat, they managed to pull off a remarkable victory over their arch-rivals Bayern Munich after a long time. Now they are aiming to recover from the setback they faced recently and will look to bounce back in the first leg of the Quarter Final in the Champions League. They will have to give their all to get a positive result from this upcoming fixture.

Players to Watch

Samuel Lino (Atletico Madrid)

He is a very athletic and strong player, he is an integral part of SImeone’s team. He is comfortable in playing various different positions on the field. Using his speed he exploits the spaces left by the opponents. Samuel has a really good striking ability and is a really good finisher inside the box. His decision-making near the opponent’s box is also very special. He is composed in making his decisions and doesn’t shy away from taking risks,

Karim Adeyemi (Borussia Dortmund)

He can play as a striker as well as on the wings, he is happy to drop a little deeper to play in between the lines, link-up play and create space for his teammates to attack the space. He uses his pace to get past defenders and drive the ball into the box with the stronger foot. He is very comfortable using both feet to dribble and uses his agility to quickly change directions. He will be a big threat to the Spanish side for sure.
