Where to watch – Megogo media service.
Prediction from Parimatch Ukraine:
Borussia win D – 2.50
Chelsea win – 2.90
Draw – 3.35
London
Chelsea are returning to the Champions League after a disastrous series at home. The Blues were eliminated from all English trophies and dropped to ninth place in the Premier League. To remedy the situation, the club spent 329 million euros in the winter on newcomers, including Mikhail Mudrik. But so far this hasn’t helped much, at least the Ukrainian took part in three matches – all tied (0:0 with Liverpool and Fulgham, 1:1 with West Ham). Overall, Mudrik, João Felix, Enzo Fernandez, Noni Madueque and David Datro Fofana have so far scored 1+1 for everyone in the “goal + pass” system. And it all depends on the fact that Chelsea will not play in the European cups next season. So while all is well here, you should get the maximum out of this draw. The Londoners finished first in the Champions League group by beating Milan, losing the first leg to Dinamo Zagreb and saying goodbye to Tuchel.
Dortmund
Borussia is one of the teams that shines with new colors after the World Cup break. Edin Terzić’s team won all 6 games in home tournaments, scoring 17 goals in the process and nearly catching up with Bayern in the title race. Only 3 points separate them from the first place (from the second place Berlin “Union” – 2).
In favor of the German team and the home walls. They have lost only once and won 8 times in 12 games played at Signal Iduna Park this season. Black-yellows did not lose to Bayern (2-2) in the championship and Man City (0-0) in the Champions League.
In the winter, Borussia solved several major personnel problems at once. He first extended his contract with 18-year-old Yusuf Mukoko, also signed a right-back from his direct rival Julian Ruerson for the Union Bundesliga title and bid farewell to Thorgan, to the delight of the fans. Hazard switching to PSV. True, the young talent of Mukoko from Dortmund will not play with Chelsea. The striker was injured in the match against Werder Bremen and will be out of the field for up to 6 weeks.
Prediction from Parimatch Ukraine
Analysts of the first legal bookmaker in Ukraine and Chelsea’s official partner see Londoners as potential quarter-finalists. The coefficient for the Potter team to advance to the next stage of the Champions League is 1:59, for Dormund – 2:45. However, in the match at Signal Iduna Park, experts give some preference to the hosts. With a coefficient of 2.50, you can bet on the victory of Borussia. An away win is presented with a 2:90 quote, a draw counts for 3:35.
The Blues are not in very good shape for the 1/8 finals of the Champions League. The team has won only two of the last 12 matches played in all competitions and has six losses. With a coefficient of 1.57 you can bet that Londoners will not lose at Dortmund. The most likely outcome of the first match of this challenge is a 1:1 draw. Citations – 6.70.

Former coach of Dynamo Kiev Alexander Showkovsky He should have been sacked in August after a poor performance in the Champions League qualifiers.
The blue-whites, who lost twice to Cypriot Paphos in the 3rd round of the European Cup (0:1 and 0:2), were relegated to the Europa League and then promoted to the Conference League.
“I know that Dinamo management believes that a change of coach could and should be made in the summer, after they lost to Paphos in the Champions League qualifiers.
Then an opportunity arose. But the necessary candidate was not available,” the source said.
Due to the lack of alternatives, the president of the Kiev club decided to leave Shovkovsky as head coach, but in November the Ukrainian specialist was nevertheless fired and left Dynamo.

We continue to examine the future of Donetsk shakhtar To buy tickets directly to the main stage Champions League 2026/27.
This will be possible if the place reserved for the team that wins the Champions League trophy is redistributed.
All important moments of the match are available in LIVE mode Telegram Sport.ua
Donetsk Miner They are in fourth place with a coefficient of 50.250 among the clubs competing for a possible position at the heart of the Champions League.
In the last European week, the Donetsk club added +2.625 points. This increase was achieved with a 0-0 draw with Croatian Rijeka in the 6th round of the Conference League and a sixth place in the main round final table.
Main rival Greek Olympiacos – 56,500 points remaining. The Miners can regain the 6,250-point lead if they perform well in the spring part of the European Cups.
It is interesting that Shakhtar lost the first place in the UPL (Cherkasy has the same number of points as LNZ – 35 points each), and Olympiacos lost the lead in Greece to the AEK team (36 points against 37). Ukrainian striker Roman Yaremchuk plays for the team of the city of Piraeus.
Positions rangers (59,250), 4th in Scotland and Copenhagen (53.375), placed 5th in Denmark, looks less competitive in the rankings due to its position in the national championships. Leader only in championships Dinamo Zagreb And RB Salzburg (44,000 each) but there is no certainty that the turn will come.
Let us remind you that if the cup holder buys a ticket to the Champions League through the national championship, there will be a vacancy in the main squad in the 2026/27 Champions League. In this case, a balance will arise again and if Shakhtar wins the UPL and is ahead of Olympiacos in the UEFA club rankings (or the Greek club does not become the champion of Greece), it can get a direct ticket to the base of the Champions League.
If the Piraeus team is higher in the rankings and takes advantage of the available space, the Donetsk club will start from the 4th quarter of the Champions League, not the 2nd quarter, in case they win in the UPL.
