Dortmund coach Edin Terzic is looking forward to the meeting with PSV. “We are looking forward to this assignment. We have a lot of respect for the assignment and the opponent. PSV is doing excellently this season, both in the competition and in the Champions League.” The undefeated leader in the Eredivisie drew 1-1 against Dortmund three weeks ago, meaning that both teams still have a good chance of reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

“They are technically extremely good,” Terzic continues. “They are very fast, strong in the dribble, score easily and don't concede much. To have all that, you have to have a good plan, good players and self-confidence. They get that from the competition. They are looking forward to the match and we too, so it'll be fun.” Terzic does not have Nico Schlotterbeck at his disposal. The eleven-time German international is suspended after his yellow card in the first leg.

Peter Bosz knows where things need to improve compared to the 1-1 draw in the Philips Stadium. “I take a lot of things with me. One of those things is that we have to deal more effectively with the chances we get. We had the chances in the first match and unfortunately it ended up being a draw, so we will try to play that match tomorrow.” then win.” A disappointment for Bosz is the absence of Ismael Saibari. The Moroccan has not yet recovered sufficiently from his injury.
