The upcoming match between Bologna and Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League presents an intriguing clash as both teams vie for crucial points. Bologna, currently struggling in the competition with only two points from six games, is desperate to secure their first win. Their poor goal difference highlights the challenges they have faced thus far. Conversely, Borussia Dortmund has shown stronger form but sits just outside the automatic qualification spots for the knockout stages, indicating that every point is vital for them as well . The stakes are high, and both teams will be keen to capitalize on this opportunity.
Bologna and Borussia Dortmund are two teams with contrasting fortunes.
Hosts Bologna are competing in European football’s elite competition for the first time since 1964/65. So far it is going horribly wrong.
The Italians have just two points from six matches. And with just one goal to boast, they are the lowest scorers in the competition.
In the domestic league, Bologna has improved significantly, amassing 33 points from 20 league matches - a performance better than last season under Thiago Motta. In the past week, the "Rossoblu" drew away against Inter (2:2) and defeated Monza at home (3:1).
"The match against Borussia will be our last home game in the Champions League, and we have set ourselves the goal of putting a win on the board. We will do everything we can to achieve this and hope our fans will support us in this endeavor. We are doing well, and I am pleased with how we are growing, possibly partly thanks to the Champions League. I will try to do something extraordinary against a very strong team. I get goosebumps just thinking about what might happen if we achieve a positive result," Italiano said.
Bologna possible starting lineup: Skorupski; Lykogiannis, Casale, Beukema, Holm; Moro, Freuler, Orsolini, Odgaard, Ndoye; Castro
Borussia Dortmund possible starting lineup: Kobel; Ryerson, Anton, Schlotterbeck, Kabar; Can, Gross, Nmecha; Brandt, Bynoe-Gittens, Guirassy
