Latest football commentary Borussia Dortmund vs Celtic
Last season's Champions League runners-up started this season's campaign impressively, scoring three goals against Club Brugge without conceding a goal at the Jan Breydel Stadion. Substitute Jamie Gittens scored twice late on, before Serhou Guirassy sealed the win with a stoppage-time penalty.
Dortmund, under new coach Nuri Sahin, are aiming to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League after appearing in 11 of the last 13 seasons. However, apart from the win in Bruges, Sahin struggled with a 5-1 defeat to Stuttgart and were lucky to avoid going three goals down against Bochum, before Guirassy and Karim Adeyemi turned things around.
Dortmund have scored 10 goals in three home games this season and have lost just three of their last 17 European games. They will face Celtic, who have never beaten Dortmund in a competitive match and have lost their last four in Germany.
Despite Celtic's excellent form, with nine straight wins and 33 goals, they have struggled away from home in the Champions League, winning just one of their last 11. Dortmund will be looking to use their home advantage, where they often score in the final 30 minutes, to continue their impressive run.
