What to know

  • Graham Potter took charge of Chelsea at the beginning of this season after Thomas Tuchel was sacked. The 47-year-old Englishman began his coaching career with Leeds Carnegie in 2008. Since then he has also enjoyed spells with Ostersund, Swansea City and, most recently, Brighton and Hove Albion. His position is in danger after a disappointing start of the year and the game against Borussia Dortmund will tell us much more about his near future. 
  • Borussia Dortmund boast a sharper attack than Chelsea. They have scored more goals in the Champions League than their upcoming opponents (11 to 10) despite registering fewer shots on target (23 to 42), creating fewer chances (65 to 89) and completing fewer take-ons (53 to 57). 
  • Chelsea use the ball differently to Borussia Dortmund. They have taken more touches than their upcoming opponents, completing more passes, passes into the final third, through balls and crosses. It is Dortmund, however, who have completed more long balls (209 to 174). 

Prediction 

Graham Potter desperately need to win this game to save his job after the disappointing start of the season but it won’t be easy at all against the German side. Pick: Borussia Dortmund 2, Chelsea 0.
