Hansi Flick’s Barcelona have been flying since the new year began. Their 4-2 league victory over Atletico Madrid before the International break extended their unbeaten streak in 2025 to 18 games. They are now just five matches away from tying with Luis Enrique’s Barca boys, who went 23 games without defeat at the start of 2016. During that amazing start to 2025, they’ve won the Spanish Super Cup and progressed in the Champions League and Copa del Rey. Plus they've also maintained their La Liga title challenge. You don’t want to miss the chance to see the buzzing Barca brigade turning on the style under the lights.
Despite their impressive run, Barcelona are still locked in a three-way battle for supremacy in La Liga and they'll need to stay focused on both domestic and European fronts. It’s an important few months for the Catalan giants, who finished well adrift of Real Madrid in the 2023/24 title race and limped out of the Champions League at the last-8 stage last season. Barcelona hasn’t progressed past the last-8 stage in Europe’s premier club competition since the 2018/19 campaign and has not reached the UCL final since lifting the trophy aloft a decade ago when beating Juve in the 2015 final. That Champions League final was the last one staged on German soil, so Barca will be hoping that proves to be a lucky omen, with this year’s final being played at the Allianz Arena in Munich on Saturday, May 31.
Getty ImagesBarcelona’s success this season has been built on their talented bunch of goalscoring heroes. Ferran Torres, Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, and Lamine Yamal have all notched double-figures on the scoring front and mind-blowingly, Lewandowski is nearing the 40-goal mark. While the majority in the crowd at the Estadi Olímpic Lluis Companys on April 9 (and maybe you if you are lucky/quick enough to secure a match ticket) will be hoping for more of the same, the Borussia Dortmund defenders will be quaking in their boots.
It's been a very tough campaign for Borussia Dortmund with Edin Terzic’s departure following their Champions League Final defeat against Real Madrid at Wembley last May, hitting them hard. BVB have struggled domestically, being knocked out in the second round of the DFB-Pokal and losing more games than they’ve won in the Bundesliga, which has left them in the bottom half of the table. Despite all that, Dortmund have performed admirably on the European stage once again and with nothing else to play for this season, they’ll be fully focused on the Barca tie.
Below, GOAL guides you on how to make your footballing dreams come true by claiming a Champions League ticket for the Barcelona vs Borussia Dortmund match. The sights, sounds and atmosphere will live long in the memory. Check out all the vital ticket information including where you can buy them, how much they'll cost and much more.

How did Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund qualify for the Champions League quarter-finals?
Getty ImagesBarca fans were a little concerned following their side’s 2-1 loss to Monaco during the opening round of the Champions League group phase. However, they needn’t have worried, as Barcelona rattled off six straight wins following that early setback. A 2-2 draw vs Atalanta in their final league match saw them finish 2nd in the table, which saw them automatically progress to the last-16 stage of the knockouts, where they were matched with Benfica. Despite having Cubarsi red-carded after 22 minutes during the first leg in Lisbon, a second-half strike from Raphinha helped settle the nerves. Back on home turf, Raphinha was on the scoresheet again (twice), along with Lamine Yamal as Barca eased through to the quarter-finals, 4-1 on aggregate.
Dortmund, the Champions League runners-up from last season, picked up where they left off with two comprehensive victories during the opening two league phase matches, a 3-0 win away at Club Brugge followed by a 7-1 romp at home against Celtic. However, as their domestic struggles continued, they also failed to maintain their consistency in Europe and they would win three and lose three of their final six league phase games, which saw them finish 10th in the standings.
It looked like a tough last-32 assignment against Sporting Lisbon on paper, but Dortmund kept clean sheets in both legs and ran out cosy 3-0 aggregate winners. Lille proved to be a tougher nut to crack in the last-16 though. It was perfectly poised at 1-1 following the 1st leg in Germany, but the balance of power shifted in Lille’s favour after they opened the scoring after 5 minutes of the 2nd leg. Dortmund dug deep and rallied in the second half, scoring twice to book their spot in the quarter-finals.
