Match Facts

  • The only previous meeting between Borussia Dortmund and Villarreal came in the UEFA Champions League last season, with the German side running out 4-0 winners at SIGNAL IDUNA PARK (November 2025).

  • In their 4-0 win against Villarreal last season, Borussia Dortmund recorded 4.03 xG from just 13 shots in the match. This was their second highest xG total in any game they played in 2025-26 (all competitions), only behind their 5.99 against Hamburg in March.

  • Borussia Dortmund have lost just two of their last 23 home games in the UEFA Champions League (W14 D7), with those defeats coming against Barcelona (2-3 in December 2024) and Internazionale (0-2 in January this year).

  • Villarreal lost each of their final six UEFA Champions League league phase matches last season; they’ve never endured a longer losing run in major European competition.

  • Borussia Dortmund conceded 21 goals in 10 games in the UEFA Champions League last season (2.1 per game), their second-highest per game average in a single edition, behind only 2017-18 (2.17).

  • Last season in the UEFA Champions League, Villarreal netted just five goals across their eight matches – the joint-fewest of any side, alongside Slavia Prague. They also had the lowest shot conversion rate (4.6%) of all 36 teams involved in the previous edition.

  • Villarreal have lost each of their last five away UEFA Champions League games without scoring in the process. The last side to lose six in succession on the road without scoring were Malmö FF between September 2015 and December 2021 (six games).

  • This will be Borussia Dortmund manager Niko Kovac’s fifth UEFA Champions League campaign (P27 W14 D7 L6); he’s lost as many games in his previous four (W1 L3) as in his first 23 games in the competition combined (3).

  • Across the last two editions (2024-25 and 2025-26), Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy has been directly involved in 24 goals in 24 UEFA Champions League appearances (17 goals, 7 assists). Only Harry Kane (29) and Raphinha (26) have more combined goals and assists in the same period.

  • Villarreal winger Nicolas Pepe had 19 shots without scoring in the UEFA Champions League last season, while his xG (1.57) was the highest of any player who failed to find the net in the 2025-26 edition.
