Borussia Dortmund vs. Monaco live stream 2017: How to watch UEFA Champions League online

In the first Champions League knockout round, two teams stood out from the field as by far the most entertaining. On Wednesday, those two teams go head to head in the first leg of the quarterfinals, as AS Monaco head to Germany to face Borussia Dortmund.

It’s an excellent and exciting matchup, pitting two teams that are better than they look on paper in a tie that should allow each side to show the best parts of themselves. Both Monaco and Dortmund have the ability to thrive in a high-pressure matchup like this, and with the kind of freedom and fun both of these teams can put on display, this has the potential to be the most scintillating Champions League tie we’ve seen in a long, long time.

It’s a shame only one of these teams can win the tie, but there can only be one winner. With the tie ending in Monaco, it’s going to be vital for Dortmund to get off to a strong start in the tie with a commanding win at home. Expect them to come out playing hard and fast, hoping to score as many times as they can to really pin Monaco to the wall early in the tie so they stand as good a chance as they can of making the semifinals.

This game was originally scheduled to take place on Tuesday afternoon, but had to be postponed after explosives truck Dortmund’s team bus. It now takes place two hours prior to the other two Wednesday matches.
