Substitute Jamie Gittens was the star as Dortmund's late three-goal surge saw off Club Brugge on Matchday 1. Their patience and depth in personnel will be key to their season, according to Julian Brandt. "It was a lot of work and a battle of attrition," said the midfielder. "The spaces became larger towards the end as Brugge's energy dried up. What then sets us apart is that the bench scored the goals. We have a good squad across the board."


Celtic will not be lacking in persistence, however, given they scored four times in the second half against Slovan Bratislava to start their campaign in impressive fashion – their 5-1 win was the Bhoys' biggest Champions League victory (group stage onwards). Don't leave this one early!
