Where will Borussia Dortmund vs Villarreal be played today?
Signal Iduna Park, with the German side hosting Villarreal in the opening round of the league phase of the 2026-27 UEFA Champions League.
Borussia Dortmund aim for a strong European start
Niko Kovac in confident mood after a series of positive results since the beginning of the season.
Dortmund suffered a 2-1 defeat against Bayern Munich in the 2026 German Super Cup before responding with three consecutive victories across all competitions.
One of those wins came in an exciting 3-2 victory over Hoffenheim in their most recent Bundesliga match, providing the team with a major confidence boost ahead of the start of their Champions League campaign.
Dortmund will be hoping to maintain their strong form on the European stage, particularly as the team has major ambitions of reaching the later stages and achieving better results in the competition this season.
The German side can also draw confidence from their previous meeting with Villarreal, having secured a convincing 4-0 victory in November 2025 during last season's campaign.
Borussia Dortmund have won three of their last four competitive matches, scoring 10 goals and keeping clean sheets in two of those games. These figures highlight the team's attacking strength and relative stability ahead of their clash with Villarreal.
Villarreal face a difficult test against Dortmund
Villarreal, meanwhile, enter the match under more difficult circumstances after an inconsistent start to the current season.

Villarreal have failed to win any of their first four matches of the season. They began their campaign with two consecutive draws before suffering defeats in their next two games.
In their most recent match, Villarreal suffered a 3-2 defeat against Deportivo La Coruña in La Liga, despite taking the lead through a goal from Nicolas Pépé in the 19th minute.
The defeat has raised concerns over the team's ability to compete in the coming weeks, particularly with the Champions League now underway and a series of difficult opponents ahead.
A difficult challenge for the Yellow Submarine
clash with Borussia Dortmund will be one of their toughest matches since the start of the 2026-27 season, especially with the game being played at Signal Iduna Park in front of Dortmund's home supporters.
Villarreal will need to produce a strong defensive performance and make the most of their attacking opportunities if they are to secure a positive result in Germany.
The challenge is made even more difficult by Villarreal's league-phase schedule, which includes demanding fixtures against major clubs such as Napoli, Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain.
As a result, Villarreal know that earning a positive result against Borussia Dortmund could be extremely important at the beginning of their European campaign, particularly after finishing 35th in the same stage of the competition last season.
Borussia Dortmund vs Villarreal: A highly anticipated European opener

The German side will be looking to prove their readiness for European competition and build on their recent positive results, while Villarreal will be searching for a turning point that can restore confidence and help them overcome their difficult start to the season.
