Excitement in the Newcastle penalty area! At the corner, Longstaff gets the ball on his arm. But that wasn’t intentional and wasn’t a serious increase in body surface area. That’s why the game continues.

In this group, anyone can really beat anyone. Dortmund lost against PSG, then Newcastle won against PSG and then Dortmund won against Newcastle. Only AC Milan is still a bit difficult to assess. The Italians played 0-0 against Dortmund and Newcastle and lost 3-0 against PSG. Before this 4th match day, no predictions can be made about progress.

Eddie Howe also made three changes at Newcastle compared to the win against Arsenal. Hall starts in left defense instead of Burn. Willock starts in central midfield. To do this, Joelinton moves one row forward and Gordon initially sits on the bench. Livramento also starts for Almirón on the left wing.

About the personnel: Edin Terzić makes three changes at BVB compared to the 4-0 defeat against Bayern. Süle starts in defense for Wolf. Nmecha starts in midfield. Reus initially sits on the bench. Additionally, Adeyemi starts on the left wing instead of Malen.
5:55 p.m
The feeling at Newcastle is completely the opposite at the moment. The Magpies come to Dortmund with two very good games behind them. First, they won 3-0 at Manchester United last Wednesday and moved into the quarter-finals of the League Cup. Then came a 1-0 win in the Premier League against previously unbeaten Arsenal on Saturday. So Eddie Howe’s team is in good shape and they have already proven this season that they can beat any opponent.

“We were very honest with each other and then put a hook behind it. We want to do better as quickly as possible. We know it’s in us.” That’s what Edin Terzić said yesterday about the 4-0 defeat against FC Bayern. Today against Newcastle, the black and yellow have the chance to at least partially forget the disappointing game from the weekend. Through one Victory could allow Dortmund to take the lead in Group F.
