All we have to do is beat an already eliminated side sitting 9th on the table in Switzerland at Celtic Park to progress. It sounds simple doesnโt itโฆ too simple ๐ฌ๐ซฃ
BSC Young Boys will travel to Celtic Park next month eliminated from @ChampionsLeague โ A win or potentially even a draw vs the Swiss champions would confirm our progression to the knockout phase.

๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ | ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ก๐ค๐ง Iโm seeing GT getting a lot of stick after last night & whether you agree or disagree with it Celtic need to look at this area. Itโs clear that left-back is our weakest area of the pitch & if weโve to keep on progressing this needs addressed.
๐ | ๐พ๐๐ก๐ฉ๐๐ - ๐๐พ๐ ๐๐ง๐ค๐๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ๐จ As per @fmeetsdata: Celtic have an 87% likelihood to reach the UCL knockout rounds. Celtic are most likely to face PSV or Benfica should they progress. One more win gives us a 99.8% likelihood to qualify.
Itโs worth noting that Arne Engels is the youngest permanent member of the Celtic first team. Yes, he is due a spell out of the starting XI but he only recently turned 21 & is already a Belgian international. He will come good, unfortunately for him his fee goes against him.

Itโs time for Bernardo & Valle to get their run in the team.
