The Champions League playoff round kicks off today and has some very intriguing matches on tap.
Sure, clubs like Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain did not expect to be here, fighting for their collective Champions League lives. That alone, should present some drama.
Borussia Dortmund normally would be a strong favorite vs. Atalanta, but it is unclear exactly who will play on the backline for BVB due to multiple injuries.
Clearly, this set of games will draw some eyes.
