Borussia Dortmund will travel to Turkey for their first Group match in the UEFA Champions League 2021-22 against Besiktas on Wednesday, September 15. Besiktas qualified for the European championship after winning the Super Lig title last season. At the moment, they are leading the table of the Turkish top-flight with four victories in their kitty.
On the other hand, the German team will look to build on their last year’s performance when they reached the quarter-finals of UCL. Under the guidance of former Borussia Monchengladbach boss Marco Rose, Dortmund is looking more dangerous than ever this year. They are coming into this game on the back of an impressive performance in their domestic league, winning three out of their opening four games.
The match between Besiktas and Borussia Dortmund will kick off at 10:15 pm (IST).
