After their emergence into the Bundesliga, where they became the main rival of the powerful Bayern Munich in more than one campaign, the former GDR team was not so bad in the European competition.
Just three goals scored and twice as many conceded have them as one of the six teams that have not yet scored in the competition, but their quality is far superior to the rest of the members of that group.
Faced with a historic team like Celtic, they will have the mission of beginning to right the course if they want to remain in the first level, reserved for those who place among the top 24 of this new format.
This Tuesday’s day will have a couple of stellar duels: Real Madrid (Spain)-AC Milan (Italy) and Liverpool (England)-Bayer Leverkusen (Germany).
In addition, the faces will be seen Slovan Bratislava (Slovakia)-Dinamo Zagreb (Croatia), PSV Eindhoven (Netherlands)-Girona (Spain), Sporting (Portugal)-Manchester City (England), Lille (France)-Juventus (Italy), Borussia Dortmund (Germany)-Sturm Graz (Austria) and Bologna (Italy)-Monaco (France).
