No need to go over the serious dint put into Brendan Rodgers selection options tonight in Germany. Scott Brown ,Leigh Griffiths, Tom Rogic and James Forrest all miss todays game.

The odds are well and truly stacked against Celtic tonight getting any kind of a result, the task would of been hard enough had the Celtic boss had a full squad to chose from. Maybe somewhere in all the rubble is a diamond. Maybe a fringe player gets a game, puts in a scintillating performance and the Hoops exit Germany with some points in the bag.

The Celtic team won’t be short of fringe candidates to shine. With Jozo, Gamboa, Morgan, Christie and Kouassi all drafted in you get the feeling tonights game will go terribly wrong or maybe shock you. Some players have a lot to prove yet to the Celtic support and they won’t get a better stage than tonight.

Gordon, Šimunovic, Gamboa, Morgan, Christie, Boyata, Ntcham, Edouard, McGregor, Tierney (C), Kouassi
