Preview: Borussia Dortmund vs. Real Madrid

Sports Mole previews Tuesday's second-leg clash between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Borussia Dortmund have it all to do on Tuesday night when they host Real Madrid for the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie.

The German side were comfortably beaten 3-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu last week as goals from Gareth Bale, Isco and Cristiano Ronaldo saw Madrid put one foot in the last four.

However, Dortmund may take some inspiration from last season's clash between these teams at the Westfalenstadion when they beat Madrid 4-1 in the first leg of the semi-finals.

The Spanish giants head into the tie in superior form, having won their last three matches. Dortmund have won three of their last six games.

Ronaldo is an injury doubt for the hosts as he nurses a knee problem, while Marcelo and Jese Rodriguez both remain sidelined.

Sebastian Kehl is banned for Dortmund, who are also without Marcel Schmelzer, Ilkay Gundogan and Sven Bender.
