Two sides looking to force their respective ways into Champions League contention face off, as PSV Eindhoven welcome Borussia Dortmund to town. PSV have been flying domestically this season, ripping up the form book to be the dominant force in the Eredivisie and they are a dark horse in the competition in the eyes of many UCL betting apps. Borussia Dortmund meanwhile progressed from a very tough group, and they will be hoping to pick up a result here and take the tie back to Signal Iduna Park next month.
