Borussia Dortmund hosts Inter Milan at the Signal Iduna Park this Wednesday, January 28, 2026, for a decisive Matchday 8 fixture in the Champions League.
Currently sitting in 16th place with 11 points, BVB is looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2-0 defeat in London last week. While they have already secured a play-off spot, a victory is essential to keep their fading hopes for automatic top-eight qualification alive.
Dortmund’s formidable home record is a key advantage; they have lost only once in their last 21 Champions League games at the Signal Iduna Park. However, manager Nuri Şahin will have to navigate a significant absence as Daniel Svensson is suspended, while Niklas Süle (back) and Marcel Sabitzer (calf) remain injury doubts.
Inter Milan
Inter Milan travels to Germany sitting just above their opponents in 14th place with 12 points. Like Dortmund, the Nerazzurri are searching for a win to secure a more favorable play-off seed or a slim chance at a top-eight finish.
Despite a 3-1 loss to Arsenal in their previous European outing, Inter remains in excellent domestic form, currently leading the Serie A table by five points. The Italian giants boast Italy’s best road record this season, yet they historically struggle when traveling to face German opposition in this competition.
Coach Simone Inzaghi is missing full-back Denzel Dumfries, who is out until March following ankle surgery, while star midfielder Hakan Çalhanoğlu is unlikely to be risked due to a calf issue. Inter will rely on the clinical partnership of Lautaro Martínez and Marcus Thuram to breach the Dortmund defense.
