    Hopefully no injuries tomorrow and we can get a good prep in for this! :ynwacelti

    Am going for a Celtic win, 1-2, based on pretty much * all other than 'Keep The Faith' so C'mon the Hoops.

    Not looking forward to this.

    Have more confidence of getting something from the last two fixtures than I do this.

    A respectable showing and making it a good game will do for me. The Bhoys are still learning, and I expected nothing more than that experience for them from this group.

    3 points from this would be outstanding

    I think we'll perform slightly better against them in this game, having now had experience of how they play. However, one worry is that they'll likely have some of their key players back in the squad.

    Toure, if he plays, will want to atone for his previous mistakes against them, so his experience and determination will be key for us.

    They're the favourites, but we could cause an upset if the whole team plays to their best.

    If we can make ourselves look respectable and not like a part time team like most away games then i'll be happy

    For this game we need to go 343/3412, this will nullify them overloading the wings and since they play a fluid 442 will hopefully allow us to get at them. Would be tempted to put Jozo in for Lustig as well.

    Gordon
    Lustig Toure Erik
    Forrest Armstrong Brown Tierney
    Roberts Dembele Sinclair

    or

    Gordon
    Lustig Toure Erik
    Forrest Armstrong Brown Tierney
    Rogic
    Griff Dembele

    Do they not mostly play a 3-4-3

    Sommer
    Korb/Jantschke/Vestegaard Christensen Elvedi
    Traore/Herrmann Kramer Strobl/Dahoud Wendt/Johnson
    Hahn/Hazard Stindl Raffael
    ​
    Quite a weird style as none of their front 3 are really out and out strikers either, they're all more attacking midfielder style players.

    Not sure was just going off the last game and not sure how many injuries they've still got, there is a lot of pace in that team as well, think it'd be smart if we go 3 at the back.

    I'll never throw the towel in, they'll put us under severe pressure but they aren't Barcelona. If we don't concede, the longer the game goes on we'll have chances.

    Our front 3 will be absolutely crucial; Dembele, Sinclair, Forrest, Roberts and Griff are all more than capable of doing damage on the break.

    I believe that the most points speak for Borussia.

    1. Our topscorer Raffael and Hazard are fit again. They didn't play yesterday, but they will return on tuesday for sure

    2. We are unbeaten at home since january (exept the Barca-Game )

    3. We have a day more off

    4. We have beaten you in Glasgow

    5. We are Borussia ;-)

    Now, do you bring Toure back in or do you stick with Jozo and Erik?

    Stick, for me.

    Jozo and Erik look like they could form a formidable partnership. In fact, a few seasons of them playing together and they could have their own detective series.

    If we do somehow pull this off and get the win it should pretty much guarantee European football after Christmas, huge incentive.
