TACTICS

Rodgers is likely to field a lone striker in Europe, with Griffiths his first choice but Dembele offering a strong alternative option. Ryan Christie, Kris Commons and the exciting on-loan Manchester City youngster Patrick Roberts are other attacking midfield options. New signing De Vries could rival first-choice keeper Craig Gordon, while Israel’s Nir Bitton could be used in place of Callum McGregor in central midfield.
