Atletico Madrid will face Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, with the top-half quarter-finals starting soon.

Hello and welcome to tonight’s live coverage of the highly anticipated Champions League quarter-final clash between Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.

Both teams have had a rather underwhelming season so far. Atletico currently sit in fourth place in La Liga, a staggering 27 points behind the leaders. Similarly, Dortmund find themselves in fifth place in the Bundesliga, trailing the top spot by 23 points.

Due to their respective league positions, many believe that the eventual winner of this competition will emerge from the lower half of the bracket. However, tonight’s match will determine which of these teams will progress to the last four, and both sides possess the ability to cause some serious trouble.

It is worth noting that Atletico Madrid, who have already defeated league leaders Real Madrid this season, boast an impressive defensive record, second only to their city rivals. Additionally, their victory over Inter in the previous round showcased their ability to generate attacking momentum when it seemed impossible.

On the other hand, Dortmund recently secured a victory against Bayern Munich, and prior to their loss against Stuttgart last weekend, who are currently enjoying a successful season in third place, they had won five consecutive matches. Notably, their attacking prowess has been on full display, leading many to question whether the bookmakers have underestimated their chances by making them second-favourites.

The highly anticipated match is set to kick off at 9pm local time, 8pm BST. Stay tuned for all the action and excitement as these two teams battle it out for a spot in the semi-finals.
