Erling Haaland's spectacular form will be very crucial for Lucien Favre as Borussia Dortmund have many titles to fight for this season. They are currently second on the Bundesliga 2019-20 table (lagging behind league leaders Bayern Munich by a solitary point). Dortmund are set to face PSG in their Champions League 2019-20 Round of 16 clash. Dortmund vs PSG first leg is scheduled on February 19, 2020 at 1:15 AM (IST).
