Borussia Dortmund vs Shakhtar Donetsk Live Stream: Watch Free Online Champions League Game

German champions Borussia Dortmund will look to take advantage of their away goals when they host Shakhtar Donetsk in the last 16 second leg of the UEFA Champions League.

Dortmund, who are out of all domestic competitions, go into the decisive game holding a slight advantage after their 2-2 draw in Ukraine and will look to press home their superiority at home.

"I have read it would be a lost season if we don't go through," Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp said. "I think that's very harsh. We have a big opportunity to finish second in the Bundesliga: we wouldn't have dreamt of that three years ago.

"It is a very, very important match for us because this side have the opportunity of reaching something new, the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

"It will be difficult for either team. In the first leg we saw that both sides are here on merit and they have high quality. The first leg decided nothing. Our position is maybe a bit better, but no more than that.

"I'm not worried about us making mistakes. There is no such thing as a football match without mistakes. It's about performing so well that your mistakes don't matter in the larger scheme of things."

Shakhtar coach Mircea Lucescu insisted his side were well prepared for the challenge. "I have followed Dortmund's recent games closely and of course I attended their match at Bayern," he said. "In the first half they played for counterattacks, but in the second they were active and played a more attacking game.

"I think we are well prepared although Dortmund are a very strong side. They advanced from a group containing Ajax, Real Madrid and Manchester City and created six or seven clear chances against all of them at home."

Center-back Mats Hummels is a doubt for Dortmund after missing the last two games with an illness, while Shakhtar are without Dymtro Chygrynskiy.
