Brendan Rodgers’ Celtic will be far from full strength for their clash with the Norwegian outfit tomorrow night.

Celtic head to Norway to take on Rosenborg tomorrow night in the second leg of their Champions League qualifying tie, and according to a report from the Scottish Sun, Brendan Rodgers will be without three key players for the vital match.

The Hoops ran out comfortable 3-1 winners in the first leg against the Norwegian outfit last week, but the tie is far from finished, and the Glasgow giants will have to be at their very best if they are to advance through to the next stage.

Rodgers will have to guide his side through to the next stage of the competition without a full compliment of players to choose from, however, according to a report from the Scottish Sun.

The British tabloid claims that Dedryck Boyata and Mikael Lustig have returned to training after World Cup duty, but are unlikely to be involved tomorrow night, whilst striker Leigh Griffiths is back in full training, but won’t travel to Norway.

Rodgers does, of course, have an incredibly strong group of players at his disposal, and the Northern Irishman will be hoping that the side he picks tomorrow night still have enough quality to progress through to he next stage of the competition.
