Borussia Dortmund vs Arsenal History

Borussia Dortmund experienced three campaigns in the European Cup era, when they reached the First Round, the Quarter-Finals, and the Semi-Finals, suffering defeats to Manchester United, AC Milan, and Inter Milan.

They then sat out the competition for thirty years due to their relatively poor Bundesliga form, and they watched on as fellow German sides Bayern Munich, Borussia Monchengladbach, and SV Hamburger all performed well in the competition.

Under Ottmar Hitzfeld, their fortunes improved, both domestically and on the continent, with Bundesliga titles helping them back into the now-renamed UEFA Champions League. In their first campaign in the new format, they reached the Quarter-Finals in 1995/96 when they lost to eventual finalists Ajax.

The following season they fought all the way to the UEFA Champions League Final, defeating Manchester United in the Semi-Final on their way.

They faced Juventus in Bern, Switzerland, and performed impressively against the overwhelming favourites, winning the contest 3-1 and picking up their maiden top-tier UEFA trophy.

With Jurgen Klopp now in charge, Borussia Dortmund enjoyed another strong period of tangible success, with two Bundesliga titles secured in his stint in charge. They also reached the UEFA Champions League Final in 2012/13, where they met Bayern Munich in an all-German final at Wembley Stadium.

After a cagey first half, Mario Mandzukic put Bayern Munich ahead on the hour before Ilkay Gundogan leveled from the spot eight minutes later.

The Bavarian giants then imposed themselves on the game and deservedly clinched the win with Arjen Robben scoring a late winner.

Arsenal’s record in the UEFA Champions League can be best described as frustrating. The level of consistency achieved in the tournament under Arsene Wenger was credible if ultimately fruitless.

For 17 seasons in a row, Wenger led the Gunners into the UEFA Champions League, and on every occasion, the North London club found a way through the opening group stage before failing to superior opposition.

In 2005/06, they came painfully close to winning their first UEFA Champions League crown.

In Paris, they led FC Barcelona for over 70 minutes despite being down to ten men for much of that period.

Sol Campbell had put Arsenal ahead, but late goals from Samuel Eto’o and Juliano Belletti saw the Premier League side’s dreams shattered.

They regularly battled to the latter stages of the competition in this period, reaching two Quarter-Finals and a Semi-Final in the space of a three-season spell in the late 2000s.

The last elimination in the UEFA Champions League under Arsene Wenger was a particularly dispiriting one. Arsenal were thumped 5-1 in each of their two legs against Bayern Munich in the Round of 16 in 2016/17, a result that was seemingly a suitable end to the French manager’s run in the competition.

The Premier League side then missed out on a place in the tournament for six years before that run was ended when Mikel Arteta’s side finished second in the domestic title race in 2022/23.

Borussia Dortmund vs Arsenal Head-to-Head

These two sides have met in four separate UEFA Champions League campaigns, the first of which came in the group stage of the 2002/03 tournament, with Arsenal winning the home tie 2-0 and Dortmund taking the honours in a 2-1 win in Germany.

In 2011/12, they were once again drawn with each other in the group phase; this time, Arsene Wenger’s side secured a notable draw at the Westfalenstadion before a Robin van Persie double gave them a 2-1 home victory at the Emirates Stadium.

2013/14 was another group phase pairing, with both teams getting away wins, and in 2014/15, Borussia Dortmund beat Arsenal 2-0 at home and then lost 2-0 in England.
