ANKARA (AA) - Borussia Dortmund will take on Manchester City in Group G Matchday 5 of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
The German club are looking to secure their Round of 16 qualification against the Citizens, which already secured theirs.
Dortmund, meanwhile, having only a single win in five Champions League games against Man City, are looking for a second win.

Many of Dortmund players are injured, including Sebastian Haller, who is getting cancer treatment and skipper Marco Reus, who suffers from a severe ankle injury.
