Today, Borussia Dortmund is embarking on a journey to Baku, Azerbaijan, for a UEFA Champions League match. The team has arrived at the airport and is prepared for their trip. Konstantinos Karetsas, a player with an injury, will not be traveling to Baku as he is out with a ligament injury in his foot. He will not be able to play in the upcoming match against Frankfurt on Saturday.
The flight to Baku will take approximately five hours, with temperatures of 23 degrees Celsius in the city, compared to 10 degrees in Dortmund. The team is coached by Lithuania's Valdas Dambrauskas, who gained his coaching education through winning the 2002 Lithuanian version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." Sabah FK, the opposition, has had a remarkable journey since being founded in 2017, reaching the UEFA Champions League this season.
The club secured their first national league title in 2026, breaking the record for the youngest club to advance to the Champions League. Borussia Dortmund will face Sabah FK at the Olympic Stadium in Baku for their final away game of this seven-day European club football tour.
