Barcelona is one of the favorites to win the Champions League of this season, especially after Liverpool was eliminated earlier this week. Hansi Flick's side and Real Madrid are the leaders of many people to win the competition, and they could meet in the final, which would be the first time that this happened in the history of El Clasico.
Barcelona went on Tuesday in the quarterfinals with a 4-1 total victory over Benfica, and their reward for that is to be confronted with Borussia Dortmund. There is an expectation of many that the Catalans will endure this draw, especially because they have already defeated the Bundesliga Giants this season in the competition phase. But according to MD, the former football player and Sky Sports commentator Dietmar Hamann Dortmund supported to improve the La Liga leaders in the last eight.
“I think Borussia will eliminate Barcelona in the two games. Barcelona is very open at the back and I don't know if that will work in the long term. Of course they score many goals because they have incredibly good players in attack, but Dortmund knows what is needed, as they showed last year.
“The second half against Lille was spectacular. In the first half they had some great opportunities they missed. They lost 1-0 and came back to rightly win, with this team, you never know. I think they are everything capable of and now they will eliminate Barcelona. '
It should be a very intriguing draw, and despite the fact that the two teams have had contrasting fortunes this season, it should be very close to the two legs. Barcelona will certainly feel like their chances, but Dortmund is more than able to cause a shock.
