Dortmund Predicted Lineup vs Celtic Preview

This marks the fifth encounter between Borussia Dortmund and Celtic in major European competitions, with the German side holding a record of three wins and one loss. Dortmund has triumphed in their last three clashes against the Bhoys, and all four prior matchups took place in the UEFA Cup during the 1987/88 and 1992/93 seasons.

Celtic has yet to secure a victory in the UEFA Champions League when facing German teams, with a record of eight matches played, two drawn, and six lost.

Their last four encounters in this competition against German sides have ended in defeat. Borussia Dortmund marks the fourth distinct German opponent that Celtic has encountered, following their matches against FC Bayern München (P4 D1 L3), Borussia Mönchengladbach (P2 D1 L1), and RB Leipzig (P2 L2).

Borussia Dortmund heads into this matchup boasting an impressive 11-match unbeaten streak at home in the UEFA Champions League (W7 D4), having secured eight clean sheets throughout this period. Dortmund has now set a record for their longest home unbeaten streak in this competition.

Celtic’s recent form in away fixtures within the UEFA Champions League has been disappointing, as they have suffered defeats in their last five outings and have not secured a victory in their last eight attempts (D1 L7).

Interestingly, the last occasion the Bhoys secured victory in their opening away match of a Champions League season was in September 2017, when they triumphed over RSC Anderlecht with a score of 3-0.

This match marked their sole win in the 2017/18 season. After securing a 3-0 victory against Club Brugge on Matchday 1, Borussia Dortmund is poised to kick off their UEFA Champions League campaign with a win and a clean sheet in their opening two matches for the first time since the 2018-19 season.

The German team won and kept a clean sheet in their away match against Club Brugge, finishing with a score of 1-0 in their opening game.
