Celtic team news and Predicted XI vs Borussia Dortmund as Rodgers makes big midfield call
Borussia Dortmund versus a possible Celtic squad
Having allowed just three goals in his nine games at Celtic so far, Kasper Schmeichel will remain Rodgers’ first choice in goalkeeping. He’ll probably get his hardest training in a Bhoys jersey from Dortmund.
In the absence of Carter-Vickers, the defensive line virtually selects itself. On the right side, Alistair Johnston is a sure thing, and on the left, Greg Taylor seems to have recovered enough to be available.
Auston Trusty and Liam Scales will be trusted in the central area and may probably have the most tough duty of anybody else in the team.
Midfield is where Rodgers makes his major decision.
Even though Paulo Bernardo is likely to start with Arne Engels, Reo Hatate is still among Celtic’s greatest and most inventive players.
In comparison to his Japanese teammate, Bernardo simply provides a little bit more off the ball. He has been playing in fantastic form lately. To compete with Dortmund, we will require that physicality and athleticism.
Whichever pair lines up, Captain Callum McGregor will lead the way.
The lightning attack that can hurt Dortmund
The most patient and potent attacking three for Celtic will be starting for the manager.
Daizen Maeda has the confidence to build on his fantastic goal return of five goals in seven games this season, as well as the quickness and work ethic to help keep the home team out of the game.
Nicolas Kuhn is likewise playing brilliantly and has the potential to be Dortmund’s main transitional weapon. He has led Celtic’s offense in scoring with five goals and eight assists thus far this season.
The person to go with through the middle is Kyogo Furuhashi. His awareness and intelligence allow him to discover gaps that cause Dortmund’s defenders problems. This is the Japanese star’s big night to shine.
Complete list of players you predicted: Schmeichel, Johnston,Trusty, Scales, Taylor, McGregor, Bernardo, Engels, Kuhn, Maeda, Kyogo.
