After a break of several months, the best club competition in the world is back on the program. Honestly, the first two matches that are on the program are more than uncertain for me, so I decided with this one, which I believe we have the best chance of passing. Borussia Dortmund welcomes Chelsea in the first game at their stadium, which has been having a lot of problems lately. Unlike them, Borussia has been playing more than excellent since the beginning of this year and they are currently in the third position in the domestic championship. Based on recent form, they are the best in the German top flight, with a 100% winning record in the past five game weeks. The victories they achieve are not at all undeserved, Borussia shows fantastic games and, as always, they play for more goals. They scored 17 goals from their last 6 games, and let in only three goals from their past five fixtures. On top of that they are at home, where they lost just once in all competitions this season, back in August last year. I think that at the moment they have a much better team than Chelsea, and I believe that we will have the opportunity to see that in this match. As always, Borussia has very talented young players in its ranks. First of all, Bellingham, who will certainly play in one of the world's biggest clubs from next season, then Moukoko, as well as the young Englishman Bynoe-Gittens. These young players have huge support from more experienced players like Reus, Can, Haller, Brandt and many others, which makes this team very dangerous. A team like Dortmund will without a doubt know how to take advantage of all the weak points of the opponent, and Chelsea have had a lot of them lately.

Despite spending a fortune on signing players since the club changed hands (over £600 million), the results have been sorely lacking. The game they are showing in the last few months is really worrying and it seems that this season is lost for Chelsea. The only indication that he is worth the money invested is Joao Felix, but he joined the club on a six-month loan. It seems that the new owner spends money without thinking too much, as is the case with most American owners in sports. For example Enzo Fernandez, who is yet to prove his qualities, played an average half season at Benfica and had a decent world cup and was paid over £100 million. There are many such players in the team who, in my opinion, are overpaid and do not provide the games that are expected of them. The results of the last months show how bad Chelsea is playing. They managed to win just 3 times in their last 15 fixtures, and one of these even came against the 19th placed Bournemouth in the PL. Against the stronger teams from the league, they usually come out as defeated or in the best case they manage to win one point.

Against the stronger teams from the league, they usually come out as defeated or in the best case they manage to win one point. A big problem for them is that they play all these matches without a classic attacker, which can be seen by the number of goals scored. In the last 10 league games, they scored only 6 goals and it is clear that Havertz, who is forced to play in the forward position, cannot play in that position. Chelsea will be more than weakened in this match. Kante, Pulisic, Mendy, Fofana and Zakaria have not been in the team for a long time, and Sterling, Madueke, Kovacic and Badiashile will not be available to the team for this duel, and it is evident that their coach will have big problems with putting together the starting 11 for this game. The vast majority of Borussia's attacks go through the wing players, and Chelsea have a lot of problems there. On the right side of the defense is James, who is recently out of injury and the question is how physically fit he is, while on the left side is Cucurella, who is really not a top level player and will have a lot of problems against the fast players of Borussia. Considering the current form of both teams, I have to give a slight edge to Borussia Dortmund. They simply look much better as a team and I believe that they will want to make the best possible result before the second leg in London and that they will be able to take advantage of all the problems Chelsea currently have.

在中断了几个月之后，世界上最好的俱乐部比赛又回到了日程上。老实说，前两场比赛对我来说非常不确定，所以我决定打这场比赛，我相信我们最有可能通过。多特蒙德在他们的球场迎来切尔西的第一场比赛，这个球场最近出现了很多问题。与他们不同的是，从今年年初开始，波罗西亚的表现非常出色，目前他们在国内联赛中排名第三。根据最近的状态，他们是德国顶级联赛中最好的，在过去的五个比赛周有100%的胜率。他们取得的胜利并不是不应得的，波罗西亚展示了精彩的比赛，一如既往地，他们为更多的进球而战。他们在过去的6场比赛中打进17球，而在过去的5场比赛中只丢了3球。最重要的是，他们在主场，本赛季他们在所有比赛中只输了一场，那是在去年8月。我认为目前他们的球队比切尔西强得多，我相信我们将有机会在这场比赛中看到这一点。一如既往，波罗西亚的队伍中有非常有天赋的年轻球员。首先是贝灵汉，他肯定会在下赛季为世界最大的俱乐部之一效力，然后是穆科科，还有年轻的英国人拜诺-吉滕斯。这些年轻球员得到了罗伊斯、詹、哈勒、勃兰特等经验丰富球员的大力支持，这使得这支球队非常危险。像多特蒙德这样的球队无疑知道如何利用对手的所有弱点，而切尔西最近就有很多这样的弱点。

尽管自从俱乐部易手以来，在签下球员上花了一大笔钱(超过6亿英镑)，但结果却非常缺乏。他们在过去几个月的表现确实令人担忧，看起来切尔西这个赛季已经输了。唯一能证明他物有所值的是若昂·菲利克斯，但他以6个月的租借合同加盟了俱乐部。新老板花钱时似乎没有考虑太多，就像大多数美国体育老板的情况一样。例如恩佐·费尔南德斯，他还没有证明自己的能力，他在本菲卡平均打了半个赛季，在世界杯上表现不错，年薪超过1亿英镑。在我看来，团队中有很多这样的球员，他们的薪水过高，无法提供人们期望的比赛。过去几个月的结果显示切尔西踢得有多糟糕。在过去的15场比赛中，他们只赢了3场，其中一场甚至是对阵PL排名第19位的伯恩茅斯。对阵联赛中较强的球队，他们通常会被击败，最好的情况下他们会赢得一分。在我看来，团队中有很多这样的球员，他们的薪水过高，无法提供人们期望的比赛。过去几个月的结果显示切尔西踢得有多糟糕。在过去的15场比赛中，他们只赢了3场，其中一场甚至是对阵PL排名第19位的伯恩茅斯。对阵联赛中较强的球队，他们通常会被击败，最好的情况下他们会赢得一分。对他们来说，一个大问题是他们在所有这些比赛中都没有一名经典的攻击手，这从进球数就可以看出。在过去的10场联赛中，他们只进了6球，很明显，被迫踢前锋位置的哈弗茨无法胜任这个位置。切尔西将在这场比赛中被削弱。坎特、普利西奇、门迪、福法纳和扎卡里亚已经很久没有在队中了，斯特林、马杜埃克、科瓦契奇和巴迪亚希尔在这场对决中也无法出场，很明显，他们的教练在安排这场比赛的首发11人上会遇到很大的问题。大部分的进攻都是通过边路球员完成的，切尔西在这方面有很多问题。右边的防守是詹姆斯，他最近刚刚从伤病中恢复过来，问题是他的身体状况如何，而左边的防守是库库雷拉，他真的不是一个顶级球员，面对速度快的波罗西亚球员会有很多问题。考虑到这两支球队目前的状态，我不得不给多特蒙德一点优势。他们作为一支球队看起来更好，我相信他们会在伦敦的次回合比赛前取得最好的结果，他们将能够利用切尔西目前面临的所有问题。
