Football Fans eagerly anticipate numerous matches around the globe, particularly those held in the UEFA Champions League Tournament. We at The Football Yeller are here to cover the Barcelona vs Dortmund Predicted Lineups for the UCL 2024/25 Quarter Final Leg 1, which will take place on Wednesday, 9th April 2025, at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companies, in Barcelona, Spain.
Barcelona vs Dortmund Predicted Lineups Preview
Barcelona have maintained an impressive record against Borussia Dortmund, remaining unbeaten in their last five encounters in European tournaments (3 wins, 2 draws). This includes a thrilling 3-2 victory earlier this season in the UEFA Champions League.
They have only faced Lyon (8), Napoli (6), and Werder Bremen (6) more times in Europe without tasting defeat. Despite Borussia Dortmund’s struggles against Barcelona, having drawn twice and lost three times in their five encounters, they have faced similar challenges in European competitions.
They’ve gone six straight matches without a victory against two other teams, one of which is also from Spain, with a notable streak of six games without a win against Real Madrid in 2024 and seven against Rangers in 1999.
Throughout his time at Bayern Munich and now with Barcelona, Hansi Flick has maintained an impressive track record against Borussia Dortmund, winning all six encounters. This stands as his best perfect record against any opponent during this timeframe.
His teams have consistently scored three goals per game against them (18 overall) and have found the back of the net at least three times in five out of the six encounters. Borussia Dortmund has secured victory in just three out of their 20 away encounters against Spanish teams in European tournaments (D5 L12).
In the knockout rounds, their record is even more challenging, with only one win from 10 matches (D2 L7), which came in a thrilling 3-2 victory over Sevilla during the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League in February 2021.
Borussia Dortmund has shown impressive form in the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League, having lost just once in their last eight matches (W5 D2). That solitary defeat was to Real Madrid in the final of last season, where they fell 0-2. They’ve secured victories in their last three away matches during the knockout rounds of this tournament, surpassing their total from the previous 17 encounters (D4 L11).
Going into this UCL matchup, Barcelona has a win probability of 40%, whereas Dortmund has a win probability of 25%, and the possibility of A Draw is 35%
