Celtic comes from the Champions League Knockout Play-off tie against Bayern Munich as they travel to Germany for the second leg after a 2-1 defeat to Celtic Park.
The Bavarian giants third in Glasgow a week ago with the courtesy of goals by Michael Olise and Harry Kane, but Daizen Maeda’s late target gave Hoops’ hope for a second leg.
The Brendan Rodgers side wants to reach the last 16 for the first time in 12 years and knows that they need a strong performance in the long soil to do so.
