Club football makes a return with another round of matches this week as Valencia lock horns with an impressive Borussia Dortmund outfit in an intriguing clash at the Stadion Schnabelholz on Monday.
Borussia Dortmund vs Valencia Preview
Borussia Dortmund finished in second place in the Bundesliga standings last season and are yet to justify their potential on both domestic and European fronts. The Ruhr valley outfit eased past Verl by a 5-0 margin in a friendly last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
Valencia, on the other hand, secured a ninth-place finish in the La Liga table last season and have failed to meet expectations in recent years. Los Che defeated Celta Vigo by a convincing 2-0 margin in their previous game and will need to step up to the plate this week.
