Celtic suffered a chastening 7-1 defeat away at Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday night, conceding as many goals in that game as they had in their last 14 Premiership games combined.
Their expected goals against in Dortmund was 2.64 which is more than they have faced in their six Premiership games this season (2.54).In conceding seven goals, Kasper Schmeichel let in two more goals than he had in his previous nine Champions League appearances combined. The Champions League has proven to be a much tougher assignment for The Hoops with nearly as many goals conceded in the Champions League (23) as in the Premiership (30) since Brendan Rodgers returned to the club at the start of last season.Celtic will look to put that performance behind them as quickly as possible and it’s a return to domestic football this Sunday with a trip to Ross County live on Sky Sports.The Bhoys are top of the Premiership with a 100 per cent record. It is the 12th time that they have won their first six games with three of those occasions coming in the last six seasons.
