Lucien Favre’s side face a tough test of facing off against Ligue 1 giants PSG in the first round of UCL knockout fixtures
Borussia Dortmund be tasked with keeping Paris Saint-Germain at bay when they welcome the French champions to Signal Iduna Park in the first leg of Tuesday’s Champions League last 16 clash.
PSG topped their group and will be boosted by the return of Neymar to their attacking flanks, with the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani rounding out their frontline.
The German side, however, will be able to unleash star arrival Erling Haaland onto the French champions, with the striker scoring nine times in six appearances for his new team since January.
Dortmund have not reached the quarter-finals of the European competition since 2016-17, while PSG will be eager to progress far into a tournament they have never won before.
