It’s a must-win scenario for Paris Saint-Germain when they face off against Borussia Dortmund on the final UEFA Champions League matchday. Nonetheless, there are concerns heading into the matchup.

First, PSG has yet to win on the road in this Champions League group stage, with losses at St. James’ Park and San Siro. As a result, they’ll need to do something they have yet to do all season to advance in the most straightforward way.

Additionally, there are other issues. If the French giants had trouble scoring on Nick Pope, they might have problems figuring out Borussia Dortmund’s shot-stopper.

Dortmund’s Gregor Kobel is among the best in the Champions League

Squawka spotlighted the clean sheet leaders after five matchdays, and Gregor Kobel is in a three-way tie for first place with David Raya and Álex Remiro with three clean sheets.

What could be an optimistic look is that PSG scored two goals past him in the 2-0 win on Matchday 1. However, he’s coming into Matchday 6 in good form. It will be interesting to see if the attack can figure him out.
