Command Analysis
Borussia Dortmund
GermanyCurrent form
Borussia was approaching the start of the Champions League as a clear contender for a direct ticket to the 1/8 finals – bumblebees had plenty of experience at such a high level, and the selection of players made it possible to set such tasks for themselves. However, at the league stage, Borussia did not achieve its goal and finished 10th, having received Sporting in the 1/16 finals, which it easily dealt with.
Borussia was also lucky to have an opponent in the 1/8 finals – the bumblebees were not required to pass the top Lille. In the first match at home, already under the leadership of Niko Kovacs, Borussia drew 1-1 with their opponent, and away they won 2-1 and went on. However, in the quarterfinals, most likely, the bumblebees' path will be interrupted – a 0-4 defeat by Barcelona will be almost impossible to win back.
In the Bundesliga, Borussia also has serious problems – only the eighth place in the table after 29 rounds. There is a six-point gap from the Champions League zone, which still generally leaves a chance of success, but at the same time Mainz, Freiburg and Borussia Monchengladbach are higher in the table. The situation could have been more comfortable, but in the last round Borussia drew 2-2 with Bayern Munich away, missing two precious points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mane, Schlotterback and Zabitzer are injured.

- In the last two matches, Borussia has not won – a draw and a defeat.

Barcelona
SpainCurrent form
Barcelona was one of the top five favorites of the tournament before the start of the Champions League and certainly set itself the task of finishing in the top eight and missing the 1/16 finals at the league stage. Hansi Flick's team had no problems achieving the goal – a direct ticket to the 1/8 finals was arranged in advance, the Catalans finished in second place in the table.
In the 1/8 finals, Barcelona's opponents were Benfica, which they had already met at the league stage and beat it with great difficulty 5-4 away. In the first match, the blue-garnet won 1-0 in the minority, but the Eagles were easily defeated 3-1 at home and there was no question of intrigue. Actually, the Catalans tried to kill the intrigue in the first match against Borussia - a 4-0 victory practically opens the doors to the semifinals.
In the Spanish championship, Barcelona gained momentum in the second round and knocked Real Madrid off the podium. At the moment, the Catalans are four points ahead of the cream in the table, the third Atletico is already 10 points behind and does not pose any threat yet. In the last round of the championship, the blue-garnet beat Leganes 1-0, managing to maintain the gap from the main pursuer.

Ter Stegen, Casado, Bernal are injured.

1.59Tip and bets
Borussia lost 0-4 in the first match and, of course, there is practically no chance of a comeback, in their current state, Dortmund are unlikely to be capable of such a feat. In any other situation, one could imagine that the side that lost 0-4 in the first match would accept defeat, field a one-and-a-half squad and focus on the upcoming championship match, but this is not about Borussia at the crowded Signal Iduna Park - the bumblebees will clearly strive to at least rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans. It will be very difficult for Barcelona to win back to zero against such an opponent in the second match in a row, but at the same time the Catalans will have a lot of space, the blue-garnet are in excellent shape and are certainly capable of responding.
We believe that the match will be productive. The betting tip is a total of more than 3.5 goals. This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.05
Betting on the outcome
Borussia is not having its best season, to put it mildly, and the fact that the bumblebees reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League in such a state is an achievement in itself. However, the first match showed that bumblebees have no chance against opponents of Barcelona's level, it will certainly be easier for Borussia to play on their own field, and there is no point in throwing all their strength at the blue-garnet team to win, but the difference in class is too great, it makes sense to count on Barcelona's victory in the second leg, they look very powerful. the wards of Hansi Flick in 2025.
The bet is Barcelona's victory. This bet is offered for 1.85
Combined bid
Barcelona is certainly the favorite in the second leg as well – the first match showed that today the Catalans are stronger by all accounts. Despite the four-goal advantage, the blue-garnet team will certainly strive to win in the second leg, there will be more free zones today, and the Catalans will be tough on the opponent. However, it is unlikely that Borussia will give up dry on their own field, bumblebees are effective in attack and are capable of scoring at home.
The bet is Barcelona's victory and both will score. This bet is offered for 2.80
