Dani Carvajal of all people was the game-breaker on that occasion, and after Madrid's shock defeat to Lille last time out in this competition, the veteran's absence is a concern. Los Blancos lost a lot of experienced heads over the summer, and with Carvajal now sidelined indefinitely, top dogs Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe have an additional burden to carry.
Karim Adeyemi scored a first-half hat-trick in the 7-1 thrashing of Celtic, though it was a result that's rather papered over Dortmund's cracks. Nuri Sahin's men have had a humdrum start to the domestic campaign, though it's not for lack of firepower. Serhou Guirassy and Jamie Gittens have been scoring goals for fun — it's their rearguard that's the issue.
It promises to be a fascinating encounter, so read on to find out how to watch the Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund live stream wherever you are.
