Overview
Following matchday one, where Mamelodi Sundowns topped Group F by beating Ulsan, Borussia Dortmund finds themselves in a must-win situation as they prepare for the second matchup.
Both teams are eager for a win, with the Sundowns having the distinction of being the first African team to win a match in this tournament. Dortmund, on the other hand, managed to salvage a point against the Brazilian side Fluminense and now hope for better odds against Mamelodi.
Key Players
Dortmund’s success hinges on the performance of forwards such as Serhou Guirassy, who is expected to step up in this crucial moment. The 29-year-old is yet to score in the Club World Cup, and now is the ideal time for him to change that narrative.
Julian Brandt is also a pivotal member of Dortmund’s strategy. This season, he has had his ups and downs and will need to guide his teammates to secure a victory and progress out of the group stage.
