Juventus vs Borussia Dortmund Live Stream: Watch Champions League Soccer Online

Juventus will play Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday night in a Champions League last-16 first leg match up. This first leg takes place at the Juventus Stadium in Italy, and will kick off at 2.45 p.m. ET (7.45 p.m. GMT). The game can be watched online through live stream (details below).

In team news for Juventus, midfielder Arturo Vidal is set to return after his groin injury, and he could play an important role in the game. Up front for the Italians will be Carlos Tevez and either Alvaro Morata or Fernando Llorente.

For Dortmund, if striker Ciro Immobile plays he will be facing one of his old clubs, and no doubt will be vying to score against them. However, most analysts believe that Marco Reus and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will get the nod in the starting line up, meaning Immobile may have to make his impact from the bench later in the game.

Juventus are looking to reestablish themselves as a force in the Champions League. Over recent years their challenge to make the latter stages of the competition have not gone well, and since 2006 they have only made the quarter finals of the competition once. Last year they did not even make the knock out stages.

However, they will have their work cut out, and face a very strong and efficient German side.

Juventus central defender Giorgio Chiellini has said ahead of the game: "Our group is strong and has grown steadily over these past few years. Now we also want to show how far we've come on the European scene."

He added, "We must approach the Champions League with enthusiasm, but at the same time be aware of the responsibility we have in flying the flag for Italy in Europe."

Dortmund though feel very much like a rising force on the European stage, and are in their third straight last-16 game. They qualified from their group as group leaders, losing just one game to Arsenal.

However, Dortmund are having a torrid season domestically, and were even in the relegation zone recently, only emerging from the depths of the Bundesliga on the back of three straight wins.

Manager Jurgen Klopp though has indicated that his side are fully focused on the Champions League and their drab domestic form will hold no bearing on how they do here: "It will take a while before we find ourselves in a different situation in the Bundesliga. Until then, the pressure remains. The Champions League is a whole different story."
