- He will be in charge of attacking set pieces.
🟨 Mario Hermoso to be shown a card 🔄️

- Griezmann has 21 goals plus 8 assists across his 38 starts in all competitions this season.
- He had an assist in the first leg for Samuel Lino which proved the winning goal.

🟨 Ian Maatsen to be shown a card 🔄️
- Maatsen was booked in two of his previous three Champions League matches with Dortmund, including in the first leg.
- He has been shown yellow cards in each of his last two matches.
