On Wednesday evening, the Bundesliga outfit will face Manchester City in their second group-stage match, with both teams hoping to capitalize on their opening day victories in Europe. Pep Guardiola's City defeated Sevilla 4-0, while Dortmund beat Dortmund 3-0 at home to Copenhagen, with Pep Guardiola's City thriving. Dortmund is missing the goals of Haaland (left) as he scored 86 goals in 89 games during his two-year stay in Germany, while Pep Guardiola's side has also been superb, scoring 12 times in seven games in the Premier League and Champions League so far, according to the Norwegian striker. It's about a lot more than just Edin Terzic's side, who seem to be going through a turbulent transition period after losing key striker Haaland in the summer. Not only has Haaland left, but there's plenty of rumors about Jude Bellingham's departure from Dortmund for Real Madrid or Liverpool at the end of the season. With the funds earned from the auction of Haaland, the German outfit was able to bring in the likes of Sebastien Haller (inset left), Karim Adeyemi, Nico Schlotterbeck, Salih Ozcan, Niklas Sule, Marcel Lotka, Alexander Meyer, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, and Tom Rothe. After scoring 34 goals in all competitions last season, Haller's signature from Ajax was seen as the replacement for Haaland.
