It is a match between outsiders in this Champions League which will be played in the Netherlands, this Tuesday, February 20, for the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. At the Philips Stadion, Borussia Dortmund will challenge PSV Eindhoven, at 9 p.m., in a more balanced clash than it seems.
First in its group ahead of PSG with three wins, two draws and one defeat, the German club will want to return to the quarter-finals of the most prestigious European competition for the first time since 2021. But the Borussen, fourth in the Bundesliga with one point ahead of the fifth, RB Leipzig, did not prepare in the best way by being held by Wolfsburg this weekend (1-1).
For its part, PSV Eindhoven is flying over its championship, the Eredivisie, with ten points ahead of its runner-up, Feyenoord Rotterdam. And in C1, the Batavian club certainly dreams of imitating Ajax Amsterdam of 2019 by completing a magnificent European campaign.
The teammates of Luuk de Jong and Frenchman Olivier Boscagli remain on two consecutive victories in the league, and had a solid campaign in the Champions League group stage (only one defeat, at Arsenal). Enough to provide an exciting clash of outsiders to follow.
The kick-off of this PSV Eindhoven-Borussia Dortmund will be given on Tuesday February 20 at 9 p.m. on BeIN Sports 1.
