Barcelona vs Dortmund match preview
Barcelona Preview
With a perfect record in 2025, Barcelona leads La Liga and is in the Copa del Rey semifinals. With 23 goals between them, Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, and Lamine Lamal are demolishing teams in the Champions League, while Wojciech Szczesny has taken over as the team’s number one goalkeeper.
With Lewandowski, Yamal, and Raphinha driving a potent attack, Barcelona aims to secure another three points to solidify their lead at the top, showcasing both defensive resilience and offensive firepower.
Dortmund Match Preview:
While Dortmund is now in 11th place in the Bundesliga, they have only won 6 of their 17 games in 2025, including 3 in the Champions League. Emre Can and Maximillian Beier scored goals as they rallied from behind to defeat Lille 2-1 (3-2 overall), but they still enter the quarterfinals as the defending champion with a strong record in the competition.
With only two goals scored in their last six away games, Dortmund’s attack has been underwhelming, relying on players like Jofre Carreras and Javi Puado to step up against a formidable Barcelona side.
