A familiar foe stands in the way of Kylian Mbappé on his way to the UEFA Champions League final in London, as Borussia Dortmund host Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of this semifinal.
This last-four clash marks the second time the two teams have met in this year's tournament, after they were drawn against each other in the group stage. PSG won 2-0 at home and earned a 1-1 draw in Dortmund.
The hosts are set to be without injured pair Ramy Bensebaïni and Sébastien Haller, while Ian Maatsen, Donyell Malen and Mats Hummels all face late fitness tests.
PSG have a number of key absentees of their own, with Presnel Kimpembe, Layvin Kurzawa and Sergio Rico all definitely out of this encounter.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services for watching every game wherever you are in the world.

Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. CET local time in Germany, which is 3 p.m. ET or 12 p.m. PT in the US and Canada, 8 p.m. BST in the UK and 5 a.m. AEST on Thursday, May 2, in Australia.
How to watch Borussia Dortmund vs. PSG online from anywhere using a VPNIf you're unable to view Champions League matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the action; that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN can stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you want an extra layer of privacy for your devices and log-ins while traveling and using various Wi-Fi networks.
With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to access the game. If your internet provider or mobile carrier assigns an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can fix that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. Be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it suspects is circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
