Preview
Dortmund’s status was sealed on MD 5 when they lost 3-1 away to Sporting CP, crashing out of the UEFA Champions League this season.
Malen scored a late goal which proved to be a mere consolation effort as BVB succumbed to a 3rd place finish this season with 6 points.
The absence of HÃ¥land proved costly for BVB in their Group stage campaign and have to settle for a UEL spot.
On the other hand, Besiktas lost at home 2-1 to Ajax on MD 5 which ensured they have lost all matches this season.
With 0 points, they play for pride and hope to avoid a clean sweep in Group C.
Both sides have their status confirmed and play this one for pride. Dortmund visited Besiktas on MD 1 last where it finished 2-1 to the visitors.
