Borussia Dortmund vs Barcelona Preview

Barcelona are yet to keep a clean sheet in La Liga this season and have conceded two goals in each of their last three matches. In last season’s group stage they conceded in all three of their away games, and up against a Dortmund side who have shown plenty of firepower domestically this term, Barca could struggle once more. Dortmund too however are unlikely to shut-out the Spanish champions with the Blaugrana scoring in all six of their group games last season. A high-scoring game could well be on the cards and while Barca are likely to dominate possession, Dortmund will feel that they are capable of hurting them on the counter-attack.
