BVB goes into the quarter-finals of the Champions League against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday as outsiders, but not without a chance. Dortmund coach Edin Terzic will have to do without the goalscorer from the first leg. How to watch the BVB vs Atletico game live.
The longing for a magical night mobilizes the last of your strength. In the quarter-final second leg of the Champions League against Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund wants to build on the old, glorious festival seasons on the big stage. The possible first semi-final entry in eleven years makes it possible to forget the strains of the recent deadline rush and new personnel concerns at BVB. After the rather flattering 1:2 in the first duel just six days earlier, coach Edin Terzic is hoping for an unforgettable moment of glory: “We need our own heroes in black and yellow.”
Similar to the coach, Sebastian Kehl is also relying on the sizzling atmosphere in the sold-out Dortmund Arena. “We will need the energy that comes from outside. Then I firmly believe that we can handle it,” said the BVB sports director. The game between BVB and Atletico Madrid kicks off on Tuesday at 9 p.m. The game cannot be seen on free TV, but Amazon Prime Video broadcasts it live. The broadcast starts one hour before the game starts. The quarter-finals of the Champions League are also available here in the live ticker.

Unlike in the Bundesliga, in which Borussia, in fifth place, is currently not living up to its own standards, in Europe there is the chance of a prestigious coup and a whopping additional income of at least 12.5 million euros. A lot will depend on whether coach Terzic’s team sells better than in the first leg. Only thanks to Sébastien Haller’s late goal can Borussia continue to hope for entry into the illustrious circle of the four best continental teams.
But Atletico are unlikely to be as bold and offensive as they were last Wednesday in Madrid. After all, their coach Diego Simeone, who is known as a hothead, is a big fan of merciless defensive tactics with effective counterattacks. “It will be a very intense game. We will have to wait for our chances and work hard for them,” speculated Kehl.

BVB – Atletico: Borussia Dortmund’s Haller is out
With a similar philosophy, Atlético has already reached the final twice under Simeone’s direction (2014 and 2016). But to the chagrin of their football teacher, the defense is not as stable as it was back then this season. In the 3-1 win over FC Girona last weekend, his team conceded their 58th goal in their 46th competitive game. There has never been an average of 1.25 goals conceded per game in Simeone’s tenure since 2011

Dortmund are not really fresh going into the game. Last Saturday’s 1-2 defeat in Mönchengladbach was more difficult than planned because the narrow lead had to be defended with a lot of passion after Karim Adeyemi was sent off (55th minute). In addition, top scorer Haller and striker Jamie Bynoe-Gittens sustained injuries.
