Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has urged his players to find ‘the next level’ when they take on last season’s Champions League runners-up Borussia Dortmund.
Celtic have won 17 games in a row and have scored 33 goals in nine matches this season, including five against Slovan Bratislava in their Champions League opener.
“We are looking to bring our game to the next level,” Rodgers said.
“The way we have been performing over the last six or seven months has just been increasing and now we come to this level.
“We are under no illusions, we are playing against a team who are challenging at the very top end of elite football. But I have always said, whether it’s domestically or coming away in this competition, it’s about making us a really difficult team to play against, with and without the ball.”
Dortmund lost last year’s final to Real Madrid at Wembley and will be tough opposition for Celtic when the sides meet on Tuesday night.
“We play for the dreams of the supporters who are travelling out here in their thousands and we play for ourselves to go and enjoy this experience,” Rodgers said.
“It’s a wonderful arena, go and embrace it. Go and cherish these big games and let’s see where it takes us.”
