Borussia Dortmund will look to win its first Champions League match of the 2013-14 season when it takes on Marseille on Tuesday.
Germany's top squad is coming off a 5-0 win over SC Freiburg this weekend, a victory that Coach Jurgen Klopp lauded.
"When my team get going, then this job is such a pleasure" Klopp said, according to ESPN. "The first half was truly exceptional. I'm absolutely delighted with our first 44 minutes. You just can't play a better pressing game than that."
However, Klopp will not be in the stadium to help his squad against Marseille. The coach received a one-game ban for disparaging a referee during his squad's 2-1 loss against Napoli a few weeks ago.
"I made myself look like a monkey out there and that's not on," he said, according to FIFA.com. "I overstepped the mark and it was really pathetic of me.
"I've already apologized to the team, the referee and the fourth official. I got it wrong. I have to accept the blame for this red card, it was just stupid of me."
Marseille will look for its first three points of the competition. The team is seen as the group punching bag and is expected to finish in last place. Marseille lost its opener against Arsenal and desperately needs to win this match to have any hopes of qualifying.
Prediction: Borussia Dortmund wins 4-0.
Start Time: 2:45 p.m. EST
