Pre-Match Report

The fifth "B" for Barcelona – BVB unbeaten at home

Matchday 6 of the UEFA Champions League will see Borussia Dortmund play host to Barcelona at a sold-out SIGNAL IDUNA PARK on Wednesday evening (kick-off 21:00 CET, live on DAZN). It is only the third meeting between the two clubs.

The scenario: Fourth versus third! Both teams have started the competition with four wins and one defeat (Barca have a +3 superior goal difference). According to computer simulations, 16 or 17 points are required in order to qualify directly for the round of 16 (eighth place or higher) – on that basis, both teams still need to pick up four or five more points from their remaining three matches.

The campaign so far: Barcelona suffered their only defeat so far on Matchday 1 in Monaco (2-1) and have since claimed four wins on the bounce: 5-0 against Young Boys, 4-1 against Bayern, 5-2 in Belgrade and 3-0 against Brest. BVB started with a 3-0 victory in Bruges and a 7-1 win against Celtic, then lost 5-2 in Madrid before subsequently winning 1-0 against Sturm and 3-0 in Zagreb.

Home/away: The Black & Yellows are unbeaten in 13 home games in the UEFA Champions League and have recorded nine wins and four draws in that run. The combined goal difference is 28-5. They have conceded in only three of those 13 home games. They have won all their home games in 2024 (five wins, 15-3 goals). The "Blaugrana" have lost 12 of their last 38 away games in European competition (10 draws, 16 wins).

Head-to-head record: The two clubs are set to meet for the third time after the 1997 European Super Cup (played in January and March 1998, 1-1 H, 0-2 A) and in the group stages of the 2019/20 Champions League campaign (0-0 H, 1-3 A) – BVB are therefore still unbeaten at home against Barca (two draws). The Black & Yellows picked up only the fourth win in their last 16 matches against clubs from La Liga when they beat Atlético Madrid 4-2 in the quarter-final return leg last season. But BVB have lost only three of their 19 home matches against Spanish visitors (nine wins, seven draws) and only one of their last 11 (six wins, four draws).

Barcelona facts: The five-time European champions reached the last 16 in 2023/24 for the first time in three seasons. Their most successful era in this competition came between 2007/08 and 2019/20, when they always reached the quarter-final stage at least. Barca have won a major UEFA club competition 14 times: the European Cup / Champions League on five occasions, the European Cup Winners' Cup four times and the UEFA Cup five times. Robert Lewandowski became only the third player to pass the 100 goal mark in the UEFA Champions League in the last home game against Brest.

Champions League: Borussia Dortmund are taking part in the UEFA Champions League for the 19th time (only 09 clubs have been involved more frequently), have reached the knockout stages in nine of their last 11 campaigns and have gotten to the final three times in total (winner in 1997, runner-up in 2013 and 2024). Barcelona are the record participants: they are involved in this competition for the 30th time, have been ever-present since 2003 and have won it four times, most recently in 2015.

Maximilian Beier returned to the bench. Emre Can, Julian Ryerson, Carney Chukwuemeka and Serhou Guirassy joined the team. <\/p>\nTactics:  <\/b>As in the Champions League, BVB started with two strikers (Fabio Silva alongside Guirassy) and a number 10, with Chukwuemeka primarily operating from the inside-left. In the four-strong midfield line behind them, Ryerson moved to the left side. Freiburg also met Dortmund's 3-4-1-2 with a back three or back five. Both attacked high and the two sides gave each other hardly any air to breathe in the first 30 minutes. Ginter was always close to Guirassy, Jung moved out of the back line when Fabio Silva dropped deep, which the Dortmund player often did, receiving balls in the middle of the park. Borussia came forward mainly down the right wing, via the agile Couto.<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2025/12/14/bl-spielbericht/14-Freiburg-1.jpg\" data-assetref=\"14-Freiburg-1-1765726138427\"><\/p>\nThe match & analysis: \n <\/b>From the very first minute on, the match was played at a high intensity. After just ten minutes, Couto and Manzambi saw yellow cards for a tussle on the touchline. There were also fiery scenes on the pitch: Guirassy headed a well-timed Fabio Silva cross just past the left post in the 9th minute, and shortly afterwards, Manzambi beat Can around the left hand corner of the six yard box, but he did not get enough behind his shot, meaning that Kobel could easily stop it on 9 minutes.<\/p>\nBorussia Dortmund had enjoyed 66 percent of the possession in the first 20 minutes \u2013 and also carved out the first big chance. After a one-two with Guirassy, Chukwuemeka took aim from an acute angle, but his shot hit the side netting in the 21st minute. Shortly afterwards, Can earned the chance to open the scoring as a result of some high pressing, which caused Freiburg to lose the ball in their half, but his shot from 17 metres was not accurate or powerful enough on 24 minutes. After exactly half an hour, the Black & Yellows were rewarded for their courageous performance: Couto struck a free kick from the right side into the box, Bensebaini chested the ball down and prodded it over the line to make it 1-0 in the 31st minute. Even though BVB was clearly in the driver\u2019s seat, Freiburg consistently looked dangerous on the counter, and shortly before the break, Günter had his side\u2019s third and best chance to score an equaliser, but the hosts\u2019 captain fired horribly wide in the 45th minute.<\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2025/12/14/bl-spielbericht/14-Freiburg-4.jpg\" data-assetref=\"14-Freiburg-4-1765726122396\"><\/p>\nEight minutes after the restart, Jobe Bellingham saw a red card. After a risky pass from Kobel, the Englishman tried to put his body in the way 19 metres out in front of his own goal, but caught Treu, who was bursting forward at pace, and was given his marching orders by referee Zwayer for preventing a clear goalscoring opportunity. It was Bellingham\u2019s first foul in the game. Günter fired the resulting free kick just past the left-hand post.<\/p>\nBVB responded to going a man down by bringing on Pascal Groß for Fabio Silva, and had hardly any extended periods of possession thereafter. The match took place almost entirely in the Dortmund half. Kobel brilliantly tipped a follow-up shot from Treu around the post in the 69th minute, and also showed strong reactions to save Suzuki\u2019s shot, which had taken a wicked deflection off Bensebaini, in the 74th minute. But 60 seconds later, Freiburg were celebrating the equaliser Höler did well to get on the end of Günter\u2019s cross and finished brilliantly, finding the far post. Freiburg had 11 shots to BVB\u2019s 0 after the red card and thought they'd made it 2-1, but Matanovic\u2019s goal did not count as he was ruled offside on 86 minutes.<\/p>\nOutlook:<\/b>   \nIn the last game of 2025, Borussia Dortmund will face Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday (kick-off: 20:30 CET).

After a risky pass from Kobel, the Englishman tried to put his body in the way 19 metres out in front of his own goal, but caught Treu, who was bursting forward at pace, and was given his marching orders by referee Zwayer for preventing a clear goalscoring opportunity. It was Bellingham\u2019s first foul in the game. Günter fired the resulting free kick just past the left-hand post.<\/p>\nBVB responded to going a man down by bringing on Pascal Groß for Fabio Silva, and had hardly any extended periods of possession thereafter. The match took place almost entirely in the Dortmund half. Kobel brilliantly tipped a follow-up shot from Treu around the post in the 69th minute, and also showed strong reactions to save Suzuki\u2019s shot, which had taken a wicked deflection off Bensebaini, in the 74th minute. But 60 seconds later, Freiburg were celebrating the equaliser Höler did well to get on the end of Günter\u2019s cross and finished brilliantly, finding the far post. Freiburg had 11 shots to BVB\u2019s 0 after the red card and thought they'd made it 2-1, but Matanovic\u2019s goal did not count as he was ruled offside on 86 minutes.<\/p>\nOutlook:<\/b>   \nIn the last game of 2025, Borussia Dortmund will face Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday (kick-off: 20:30 CET). They will continue in the new year on 9 January in Frankfurt. Both games can be seen live not only on Sky, but also on Sat.1 [Germany]. \nBoris Rupert<\/i><\/p>\nTeams & goals<\/b><\/p>\nFootball Bundesliga, Matchday 14 \n<\/b>Sunday, 14 December 2025, 15:30 CET<\/p>\n SC FREIBURG \u2013 BORUSSIA DORTMUND 1-1 (0-1)<\/b><\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2025/12/14/bl-spielbericht/14-Grafik.jpg\" data-assetref=\"14-Grafik-1765726064376\"><\/p>\nSC Freiburg:<\/b> Atubolu \u2013 Kübler, Ginter, Jung \u2013 Treu, Eggestein, Osterhage, Günter \u2013 Manzambi, Suzuki \u2013 Höler \n Bor.
