Why Borussia Dortmund fear facing one particular Barcelona forward

April 7, 2025

Robert Lewandowski is preparing for yet another showdown with a familiar foe—Borussia Dortmund—as Barcelona gear up for their UEFA Champions League quarter-final clash. 

While emotions might stir given his history with the Bundesliga side, the Polish striker has rarely shown any signs of sentimentality when facing his old team.

In fact, for Dortmund, Lewandowski has become something of a nightmare. Since parting ways with them long ago, the 36-year-old has made them one of his favourite victims. 

In fact, he has faced Dortmund 27 times and scored 27 goals—more than he has against any other club in his illustrious career. His record against them is ruthless: 20 wins, one draw, and just six losses.

Business as usual
