Borussia Dortmund travel to Paris on Wednesday for the Second Leg of their Champions League round of 16 match against PSG.

Borussia Dortmund travel to Paris with a 2-1 lead on aggregate in the Champions League. Not only do they have a lead but there are several other factors in their favour for this tie. French police have ruled that there won’t be any fans in attendance for the match, something that definitely helps Dortmund. Without their fans in their home stadium it will be somewhat of a neutral game which plays more into Dortmund’s favour than PSG’s. On top of that PSG will be without Marco Verrati and Thomas Meunier due to suspension and Kylian Mbappe is currently going through some illness that hasn’t ruled him out yet.

Dortmund will still be without captain Marco Reus and Thomas Delaney in this one. Reus is a huge blow for sure but Dortmund are used to playing without him as he has been missing for several weeks already.

Here is a look at how Borussia Dortmund could line up.

Goalkeeper: Roman Burki

Roman Burki will take his usual spot in goal for Borussia Dortmund. With PSG’s high powered offense Burki will unquestionably be tested and will need to be at his best.
