PSG host Borussia Dortmund in the opening game of Champions League Group F. This is a tough group for all concerned with the other two teams to play being Milan and Newcastle United. The French champions are still trying hard to finally win the Champions League. They will certainly want to do better than last season when losing in the last 16 to Bayern Munich. The weekend saw them lose their unbeaten record in Ligue 1 as they lost 3-2 at home to Nice. Kylian Mbappe has at least stayed with them for perhaps one final season. He scored twice against Nice making it seven league goals so far. PSG are fourth in Ligue 1 at the time of writing this article on Sunday September 17. Only two of their first five league fixtures have been won and the last four have all seen both teams score. That stat has come up in five of their last seven competitive home matches.

Borussia Dortmund are unbeaten in the German Bundesliga this season but only seventh in the table. Two of their games have been won with a couple of draws in the others. The weekend saw them come from behind at half time to win 4-2 at Freiburg. They last reached the quarter finals of the Champions League in the 2020-21 season. Last term saw the Black and Yellows lose to Chelsea in the last 16. Only one of the last six away games in the Champions League played by The Prussians has been won with four defeats in those matches. Of their last ten away Champions League fixtures, eight have seen both teams score. We believe that stat will come up again in this match.
