Marco Rose rules out Rangers clash rotation as Dortmund set to go all guns blazing

Marcos Rose insists Borussia Dortmund will go all guns blazing at Rangers as he vowed to pick the strongest team available.

The Bundesliga giants are six points adrift of Bayern Munich domestically but their boss is keen on making a big statement in the Europa League.

Having dropped in from the Champions League, Dortmund are heavy favourites against the Scottish Premiership champions, even in the absence of star striker Erling Haaland.

The Norwegian superstar won't feature at the Wesfalenstadion on Thursday night but Rose is otherwise ready to go full strength.

Asked if he was considering rotating to prioritise the league, Rose said: "I want the best 11 players to be on the pitch, and that will be the case tomorrow.

"We'll see how fit the boys are. The team that we think is in the best shape will play tomorrow.

"We're playing against a strong opponent in the play-off round and we have to do our jobs.

In addition to Haaland, Marius Wolf is also out injured while Emre Can is suspended due to the red card he received in the Champions League match
