End of European season for Chelsea? Beaten in the first leg 1-0 in Germany, the Blues find themselves back against the wall on Tuesday before receiving the Borussia Dortmund. If they are far in the championship (10th place – NDR), Graham Potter’s players have the opportunity to save a complicated season with a good run in Champions League. But for this return confrontation in the round of 16 of C1, the Londoners’ coach will have to do without Cesar Azpilicueta, Edouard Mendy, Thiago Silva, Armando Broja and Christian Pulisic in particular. In a press conference, he returned to the lack of efficiency of his players in the first leg while hoping for the qualification of his players: “We had games where we could have scored more than one and we need that performance tomorrow night. We are playing against a top team, a team that is well placed with the victories they have won. We want to make sure it’s tough for Dortmund away from home in the Champions League and we need our supporters for that. It will be a special night at Stamford Bridge.”
On the side of Borussia Dortmund, Jude Bellingham and his teammates approach this confrontation with a goal in advance and a sacred confidence: indeed, the German club remains on ten consecutive victories, all competitions combined. For this trip to London, Edin Terzic will be without Youssoufa Moukoko, Abdoulaye Kamara, Donyell Malen and Julien Duranville. In a press conference, the German coach warned his players not to be overconfident: “Mnow we are getting results. The results give us some confidence, that’s for sure. But trust won’t win us tomorrow’s game (Tuesday). She might help us out a few times, but she won’t win the game.”
