Gnabry said:
Two difficult games, but we are looking forward to them. It's a new opponent for me. As a player, you always look forward to a new experience. Jo (Kimmich) told me that it was one of the best atmospheres he'd ever experienced. That's why I'm really looking forward to it. The Celtic team is good. We were hoping to get into the top eight. We're in the playoffs now, we have to accept that and we're looking forward to the games.

Muller, meanwhile, said:
I've never played at Celtic [Park], I wasn't there for the group stage game [in 2017]. The atmosphere in the stadium must be incredible. We're looking forward to it. It's a fast-paced tie with back-to-back weeks in February. So let's rock it!
