Dortmund survive the corner and win a foul as they race out. The relief around the ground is palpable.

VEIGA! It's a late chance for the visitors, as the centre-back finds space in the Dortmund box! However, his shot just deflects wide!

Own Goal 3-2

GOOOOAAAALLLLL! 3-2! OWN GOAL GUIRASSY! He can't stop scoring! Pepe takes a right-sided free-kick close to the byline and Kobel punches. It's sent back on goal before it's bundled in by Dortmund's towering striker!

There'll be a minimum of five added minutes.

SILVA! CLOSE! The long-haired forward has been superb since he's come on, and he sees Gulacsi make yet another save as he races down the left, cuts in and beats his marker before stinging the Hungarian's palms with a powerful effort.

comment

Funnily enough, the last time Guirassy scored twice in the Champions League, was when Dortmund beat them 4-0 in November last year. He loves playing this team.

Penalty Goal 3-1

GOOOOAAAALLLLL! 3-1! GUIRASSY BRACE! Surely the hosts are home and hosed now, as the big man steps up and slams the ball confidently past a vacant Gulacsi into the left side for his second goal of the evening. It's a great start to the European season!

Yellow Card

Mourino is booked for his bear hug on Guirassy. It's so blatant, and the last thing his side need right now.

PENALTY! The right-sided corner comes in, and Guirassy is boisterously hauled down by Mourino! The wheels have come off for Villarreal!

Villarreal also make a late change, as Navarro comes off for Gerard Moreno. The search for another goal is on!

More changes for the men in yellow and black. Nwaneri is off for Carney Chukwuemeka.

What an impact from Silva! His substitution has brought immediate energy and more directness, especially with that cutting run through and brilliant ball lasered back across!

Goal 2-1

GOOOOAAAALLLLL! 2-1! GUIRASSY SPARKS DORTMUND JUBILATION! The initial free-kick is poor, but BVB possession continues before Silva is fed down the right of the Villarreal box. He gets his head up and slides the ball across where Guirassy can tap home for his first UCL goal of the campaign on the opening night! Simple as that!

78'

comment

Dortmund win a corner on the left. Ryerson takes, but it goes through everyone. Silva keeps it alive with a looping ball back across. The hosts can't make anything of it, but force another set-piece on that same side. This flurry of action ends with Anton getting utterly wiped out by Diatta for a free-kick in a promising, central area.

76'

SILVA! The Portuguese substitute is instantly involved as he lashes a shot on target from the edge of the Villarreal area! It's a well-hit effort, and Gulacsi has to parry it away from the left side of his goal! Top save!

The final change for now sees an unhappy Sabitzer sacrificed for Jobe Bellingham.

As suspected earlier, both sides go for changes. The all-action Buchanan makes way for Villarreal, being replaed by Alassane Diatta.

WIDE! Great work from Sabitzer over on the left byline sees the Austrian keep the ball in and cross. Beier and Guirassy seem to get in each other's way as the latter flashes a header wide of the right post!

Veerman sees a shot blocked, and a later corner sees Gulacsi punch out. More changes seem to be imminent, as Fabio Silva converses with Kovac in the Dortmund technical area.

This is the first time Kobel has made five saves in a Champions League game since facing Manchester City in November 2025. There, he was forced into eight stops as City won 4-1.

CHANCE! Buchanan strikes from the edge of the Dortmund box as Villarreal tails are up! Kobel has to tip the effort over in agile fashion! In the next phase, he has to stop another shot from the Canadian, but this time it's catching practice.

Assist

Mikautadze's delivery is fantastic there, but Dortmund should be doing better at their near post. How will this affect the momentum?

Goal 1-1

GOOOOAAAALLLLL! 1-1! MOURINO GETS VILLARREAL BACK ON LEVEL TERMS! Mikautadze fires in a great left-sided delivery, and the defender beats Ryerson at the near post to head past Kobel with aplomb!

65'

highlight

SAVE! Kobel gets down well as a Villarreal short corner moves inwards, and results in a Comesana drive through the bodies! The Swiss stopper parries away from the bottom-left corner well, yet takes his time to get up after an awkward landing.

64'

•

comment

Buchanan wins a free-kick just on the left edge of the BVB 18-yard box. Nwaneri is very fortunate that the poor tackle is deemed to be inside the area. Mikautadze takes it and goes for an angled shot after a clever lay-off from Pepe, yet it deflects over and behind.

62'

highlight

Guirassy is fed inside the left of the Villarreal penalty area, yet can't get his feet right in order to shoot. The visitors clear. Up the other end, Pepe races onto a long ball, cuts inside and fires a deflected effort just over!

Substitution

After missing that earlier header, Oluwaseyi is the next to come off. On comes Alberto Moleiro.

Villarreal are looking for an injection of fresh pace now, as Saliba is brought off for Nicolas Pepe.

OLUWASEYI! OVER! It's a great chance for the Villarreal striker, yet following a fine Buchanan run and cross on the left, he can only head over from close range! He just gets under it!

comment

The Dortmund goal has seen the fans bring out the pyrotechnics. It's always a sad day when one of those goes unused in this part of Germany.

55'

comment

That'll be a really frustrating goal for Villarreal to concede. They'd done ever so well up to this point, keeping Dortmund out and working predominantly on the counter. However, there was a sense it could come, especially after Nwaneri hit the post.

53'

Own Goal 1-0

GOOOOAAAALLLLL! 1-0! DORTMUND HIT THE FRONT! However, it's not a BVB man who gets it! Beier leaves Mourino in the dust on the left flank and then crosses low. Gulacsi parries it slightly before the ball ricochets off a flat-footed Veiga and trickles into the net!

51'

•

highlight

OFF THE POST! Great feet from Nwaneri sees him make enough space on the edge of the area and get a low shot off before being tackled. His strike whizzes towards the bottom-right corner, beats Gulacsi, but rebounds off the inside of the post before being cleared!

comment

Villarreal are still operating on the counter. However, there have been two instances where the final ball through has been found wanting. The first was offside, while the second was intercepted in routine fashion.

47'

highlight

Ooooh! That's rash! Nmecha touches the ball away from his marker on the left of the penalty area and gets wiped out! Referee Sozza waves it away quickly to Dortmund disdain! No penalty!

We see an early second-half shot from Nwaneri now, yet it's off target and leaves Gulacsi unbothered as it drifts wide.

Dortmund get us back into the action for the second 45 minutes. Hopefully, they're better than the first!

Substitution

Perez goes for a switch at the interval. It's a change at left-back, as Cardona heads off for Alex Freeman.

comment

Despite their turgid start to the new season, Villarreal have looked the more convincing side in this clash so far. Their moves in the face of less time on the ball have been decent enough, seeing them work up a 0.67 xG in the opening exchanges. For Dortmund, their chances have seen them operate at a lower 0.41 xG. That said, with their buoyant support, it does feel like a flashpoint could really provide the men in yellow some valuable momentum. There were moments where this worked against them, with several yellow cards being shown between the sides, yet giving those fans something to roar about will undoubtedly be part of the half-time team talk. At the time of writing, the Opta Supercomputer gives Dortmund a 45.6% win probability. There's a 33.4% chance that things stay level, while a Villarreal win comes in at 21%.

comment

Into the break in North Rhine-Westphalia, and we're goalless between Borussia Dortmund and Villarreal. In truth, it's not been a classic, but there have been moments to suggest we could see a goal. Pau Navarro's early header for the visitors just flashed wide to start things off, before Maximilian Beier's open-body effort just floated wide, with Serhou Guirassy unable to stretch and turn it home. The next moment of note was a rather unfortunate one, as Konstantinos Karetsas went down after a routine pass, requiring a stretcher to leave the field. After this, and amongst several yellow cards, Tajon Buchanan worked Gregor Kobel, and Guirassy nearly poked past a vigilant Peter Gulacsi at the other end. Alas, this clash is still for the taking, which is a scenario Villarreal probably weren't expecting.

SAVE! Gulacsi does well to race out to Guirassy at his right post, tipping behind a deft poke from the big Guinean frontman! The resulting corner is deal with, before a subsequent cross is overhit.

Dortmund have a corner now after their latest unsuccessful free-kick delivery. The delivery from the right comes to an end with Veiga finding himself fouled.

Guirassy receives the ball to feet while backing into a grappling Navarro. The Spaniard drags him to the ground to warrant a foul and another quickfire yellow card.

Frustrations peak now for Dortmund, as after a tough Saliba tackle on Nmecha gets little response from the referee, an argumentative Anton receives the game's first booking.

There's a tension rising in the air now as Mourino gets away with a naughty challenge on Beier. Then, Buchanan goes down under pressure from Ryerson to be met with boos from almost all sides of the ground.

Guirassy strikes the free-kick into the wall to receive a corner on the left. Ryerson sends it in deep, and Gulacsi claims with ease. Poor.

Guirassy does well with a charging drive on the left-centre. Navarro tries to bundle him off the ball, but instead concedes a foul in a dangerous area.

This is awful luck for Dortmund. First, it was Konstantelias getting an ACL injury; now it seems Karetsas is out for an extended period too.

We have another brief stoppage now as Ryerson clips Cardona. Play resumes with Villarreal passes amongst a steadily quickening Dortmund press. Will either side conjure something before the break?

Horrible, yet hopeful viewing, as the stricken Karetsas is stretchered off to a standing ovation. In his place, arrives Ethan Nwaneri. Everyone wishes the best for the no doubt emotional teenager.

comment

Concern continues around Karetsas. The youngster continues to receive treatment. All he looked to do was complete a simple pass and then go down. Everyone involved is hoping this isn't too severe for the 18-year-old.

23'

•

comment

Karetsas looks to burst away on a right-sided counter following a Villarreal move. The defenders catch up, and with few options, he has to go sideways. There's some real worry now in the BVB camp, as the Greek starlet takes to the turf in real pain.

21'

•

comment

The fans react well to a Villarreal turnover in the centre of the park. The Dortmund move continues up the right before a cross is lofted in for Guirassy to chase. He just can't find space, however, and the yellow shirts are sent backwards before a loose pass forward brings a goal kick to the visitors.

19'

comment

Buchanan sends in the second Villarreal corner of the day now, yet it fails to beat the front post, and it's headed away. It's safe to say that, apart from the crowd, this game has yet to really get started.

comment

After Gueye fires off target at one end, Dortmund pressurise the other. This gets only as far as a throw from the right being dealt with by the visiting defence.

comment

Mikautadze lingers with intent as the pendulum of momentum threatens to shift. Alas, Kobel claims well before the next phase sees Svensson head a cross away.

comment

In their 4-0 win against Villarreal last season, Borussia Dortmund recorded 4.03 xG from just 13 shots in the match. We've yet to see that sort of offensive presence so far, but it could take form eventually.

comment

Villarreal manage to stifle the early tempo with the award of a foul just inside their half. Some white-shirted possession ensues until a Gulacsi kick gives the ball to Dortmund.

9'

highlight

BEIER! CLOSE! The skilful wideman races in on the left side and gets the ball on his right foot inside the box. He shapes a shot for the right of goal, but it's just wide, with a stretching Guirassy missing the chance for a tap-in!

8'

comment

A nasty stat that Villarreal fans may be aware of... The Yellow Submarine have lost each of their last five away Champions League games without scoring in the process. The last side to lose six in succession on the road without scoring were Malmo FF between September 2015 and December 2021 (six games). Add in the prospect of playing Napoli, Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain, and walking away empty-handed tonight will make it challenging to improve on their 35th-placed finish from last season's league phase.

6'

comment

Oluwaseyi is the target for a Comesana ball in from the left-centre, yet the Villarreal striker's header is tamely wide. He was offside anyway. Up the other end, Sabitzer is played in with Navarro following. The defender's eventual intercepting touch has Gulacsi scampering, and he has to tip it past the base of the right post. The resulting corner is a tame one and gets cleared.

comment

Dortmund look to retaliate to the early chance with a high-energy press that nearly sees them get in behind. However, Saliba is aware of the movement and uses his body well against Karetsas to win a foul.

And we're off, as Villarreal play from right to left in their white and light blue away shirts. Dortmund are in their yellow shirts and black shorts.

The players are out now to a typically brilliant atmosphere. The captains, Anton and Comesana, meet with the day's chief official, Simone Sozza. After a moment of silence for the victims of the recent Nepalese floods, it looks like the visitors will get us started.

•

comment

These two sides really come together at different points, and it begs the question: will it be like their last meeting, when Dortmund ran out 4-0 victors last season? Currently, Villarreal are in a real time of transition, having conceded eight goals in their last four La Liga matches. On the other hand, BVB manager Kovac set a new Dortmund record of 107 points from his first 50 Bundesliga matches, as his side fought back to win from 2-0 down against Hoffenheim.

Inigo Perez makes several key switches for tonight’s intrepid encounter at the Westfalenstadion.

Up front, the pair of Ayoze Perez and Gerard Moreno make way for Tani Oluwaseyi and Georges Mikautadze.

comment

Borussia Dortmund and Villarreal kick off their 2026-27 Champions League campaign tonight at Signal Iduna Park in a hopefully engaging first league-phase clash. BVB could make it four wins on the bounce this midweek, while the Yellow Submarine are yet to surface, as they await their first victory of the season. Following a 2-1 Der Klassiker defeat against Bayern Munich in the German Super Cup, Niko Kovac’s side have recorded three consecutive wins, including a 3-2 Bundesliga triumph over Hoffenheim on Saturday. Meanwhile in Spain, things have been difficult for Villarreal's new boss Inigo Perez. His team have failed to win any of their four matches so far this season, kicking off with back-to-back draws before losing each of their last two fixtures. The latter of which saw them fall 3-2 to Deportivo La Coruna.
