What channel is Borussia Dortmund v Celtic? TV and live stream details plus team news for Champions League tie

A 6-0 win over St Johnstone on Saturday made it 17 wins in a row for Celtic, who have netted 33 goals in nine matches so far this campaign, including five against Slovan Bratislava in their Champions League opener two weeks ago.

They now go from facing debutants at this level to last season’s runners-up, but confidence is high among Brendan Rodgers and his players that they can continue their impressive form and take a positive result from Signal Iduna Park.

The odds are stacked against Celtic, however, as they have never won a game in Germany and have won only one of their last 11 European away fixtures. Dortmund, regulars in the knock-out rounds, have also been scoring for fun in recent weeks with 10 goals in their last three home games. They claimed a 3-0 away victory over Club Brugge in their Champions League opener.

Dortmund also have the upper hand on Celtic in their two previous meetings, which both took place in the UEFA Cup, firstly in 1987/88 and again in 1992/93. On both occasions the Germans progressed, winning three out of the four matches in the two-legged ties.

There will be an added element of intrigue in the dugout as Rodgers goes head-to-head with his former Liverpool player, Nuri Sahin, who publicly expressed his frustration at being played out of position by the Northern Irishman while at Anfield 10 years ago.
