The opponents have survived their post-national teams period with different degrees of success. Dortmund made a comeback from 0:3 against Paderborn, ending the match in a 3:3 draw. Barcelona claimed a solid win against Leganes 2:1. This time both teams will be more organized, but Barcelona is the favourite of this match-up. First, the Catalans will host, and the team has won more than 90% of all its matches at home during the last year. Second, Barcelona simply seems to be more coherent as opposed to the Germans - Dortmund is currently in the 6th place after twelve Bundesliga rounds. Finally, Dortmund is very lacking when it plays away. The team has won only in one of the last seven visiting matches, and this match will probably most challenging of them all.
