Borussia Dortmund are trying to repeat their last season’s template: scratchy performances in the Bundesliga and sublime displays in the UEFA Champions League. The team already has one step at the doorstep of the quarter final stage, after the away 4-2 win over Zenit St Petersburg. They need to complete the formalities at the home leg on this Wednesday at Signal-Iduna-Park.

Dortmund play an attacking game. So, expect a lot of goals in the match. Zenit too will push for goals, as they have no other options. It would be a miracle if Zenit manages to beat Dortmund by a margin of three goals or more. The more likely thing is going to be Dortmund scoring another big win. Juergen Klopp’s wards are exceptionally good at counter attacking.

What will dampen their spirits is the loss at home against Borussia Monchengladbach on Saturday, which has put their second position in the league under increasing threat.

Unlike Dortmund, Zenit still retain hope of the Russian league crown. They are four points behind the league leaders Lokomotiv Moskva. The team will draw inspiration from Monchengladbach’s win on Saturday. But a three-goal gap is too tall an order.

Marco Reus, one of the heroes of Dortmund’s win over Zenit, is not likely to play due to injury. The other heroes of the match, Henrik Mkhitaryan and Robert Lewandowski, will start. Zenit will expect a miracle from Danny, Hulk or Andrey Arshavin.
