Game Preview
Newcastle United will exact retribution when they play Borussia Dortmund again at Signal Iduna Park on Tuesday night in the Champions League. Despite the German powerhouses’ advantage in the head-to-head record, both clubs are now tied for second place in Group F. Newcastle United has shown some promise during the current campaign and is presently 6th within the Premier League rankings. The Magpies defeated Arsenal 1-0 in their most recent encounter, and they’ll aim for a repeat performance in this match. Conversely, Borussia Dortmund, who now sit in the 4th spot in the league rankings, have not played at their peak level lately. Dortmund must recover from their devastating 4-0 loss to archrivals Bayern Munich during the weekend in order to be successful in this game.
Bayern Munich outperformed Dortmund, as the Bavarian offense was faster and more mobile, tearing apart the Dortmund defense eventually feeding Harry Kane to wrap up the play. Dortmund’s lone Bundesliga loss of the current campaign happened in this contest, therefore it will be crucial for them to concentrate on defense in this game. Dortmund must make sure they play a tight opening to the match and cannot let Newcastle take the lead like Bayern did.
Newcastle enjoyed yet another fantastic week. They had also avenged their defeat to Manchester United during the EFL Cup final the previous season by smashing the helpless champions 3-0 at Old Trafford during the fourth round of play. Howe’s next task is to break the 20-year record of not winning a Champions League away game. Within moments of his substitute versus Arsenal on Saturday, Jacob Murphy re-injured a problematic area. Now he will need surgery. Dan Burn had to be taken off due to a back problem during the close win over the Gunners and entered a packed treatment room. Alexander Isak and Sven Botman won’t return until at least after November’s international break.
