CONFIRMED lineups for Atletico v Dortmund showdown

The second Champions League game this week in Madrid takes place on Wednesday evening, when Atletico Madrid play Borussia Dortmund at the Metropolitano stadium.

Dortmund, victorious in 1997, reached the final four most recently in 2013, when they finished as runners-up to rivals Bayern Munich. Moreover, Terzic's side are the only German team to have won at Atletico's stadium in the Champions League. It happened in the group stage of the 1996/97 season.

Wednesday's clash at the Metropolitano will be refereed by Italy's Marco Guida. He has never refereed Atletico and Dortmund, although he was an additional assistant to Daniele Orsato when the two met in the Champions League group stage in November 2018.

Atletico Madrid starting XI: Oblak (GK); Gimenez, Witsel, Azpilicueta; Molina, Llorente, Koke, De Paul, Lino; Morata and Griezmann.

Borussia Dortmund starting XI: Kobel (GK); Ryerson, Hummels, Schlotterbeck, Maatsen; Emre Can, Sabitzer; Sancho, Nmecha, Adeyemi and Fullkrug.
