Atletico Madrid Take On Borussia Dortmund In UCL QFs
With the league titles long gone away from the grasp of the two, Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund are relying on success in the UEFA Champions League to embellish what otherwise will be a trophyless season. Atletico are fourth in La Liga while Dortmund are fifth in the Bundesliga; both teams are at risk of missing the Champions League entirely next season.
The pair of underdogs take on each other with a very clear agenda on April 10 at the Metropolitano: Go big or go home for the season.

Head-To-Head Record – Atletico Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund
Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund have clashed just four times in the UEFA Champions League, with all four meetings yielding a winner. Twice, Atletico have beaten Dortmund, while twice the German giants have reigned supreme. The previous meeting between the two occurred in 2018/19 when Atleti won 2-0 at home.
Atletico Madrid
Far removed from the battle for the Spanish crown, Atletico Madrid instead are fighting for a Champions League spot in next season’s competition against Athletic Club and Girona. The Rojiblancos are fourth in the domestic league after 30 games, albeit only two points ahead of Athletic. They have fared better in Europe, with a two-legged win over last season’s finalists Inter Milan the statement result.
Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund, like Atletico Madrid, are mere bystanders in this season’s Bundesliga title race. Dortmund are fifth in the German top division at the time of writing, level on points with RB Leipzig, and at the risk of missing out on next season’s Champions League group stage – unless, of course, they win the European Cup. Dortmund have fared better on the continent, too, losing just one of their eight games.

Atletico Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund – Key Points
Here are the key points to mind when Atletico Madrid welcome Borussia Dortmund to the Metropolitano in the UEFA Champions League.
Atletico’s Home Comforts
Diego Simeone’s defensive behemoth is difficult to put down at home. Under the Argentinian, Atletico Madrid have never lost a home UEFA Champions League knockout tie, and will, therefore, be the favourites going into the first of two legs against Borussia Dortmund.
Antoine Griezmann’s Form
Approaching the underrated territory, Antoine Griezmann has quietly been one of the best performers in Europe this season. The Frenchman has 19 goals in 39 appearances, but his overall play is far more significant to the Rojiblancos than his productivity; he is the one that makes them tick.
