    Unfortunately I have a 9 to 5 job, a mortgage and a fiance.

    Otherwise sitting in Israel pished getting ready for tomorrow night is exactly what I'd be doing.

    Watching last weeks game again, we simply can't afford to fall asleep the way we did for the five minute period they grabbed their goals.

    I'm not sure how this game is going to go tomorrow, I know they need to go for it and are the home team but I'm not sure if they are good enough to dominate possession against us. I can see it probably being a bit similar to the game away to Astana. They'll probably have slightly more possession than us and are likely to score but once we keep calm heads and stay awake for the full 90, we should be fine. Also think with the pace we have in the team we will be dangerous on the break and wouldn't rule us out scoring at least once.

    I'm thinking it'll be 1-1, possibly 2-1 to them. An early goal for us would really calm the nerves.

    For once I'd be more suprised with a * up than not.

    We have this in the bag, just a matter of tying a knot at the top, this is coming from someone who didnt get where the 3-0, 4-0 predicitions were coming from last week ha

    We need to go in and be calm, pass the ball well, control the tempo of the game and avoid costly mistakes at the back.

    Gordon
    Lustig Kolo Sviatchenko Tierney
    Forrest Brown Bitton Sinclair
    Roberts*
    Griffiths​

    * - Roberts, Dembele or McGregor

    Gordon can be a complete liability in the big games these days so i think we should bring in de vies.. Also thinking mcgregor would be a better option in midfield than rogic for this one as we need to be a bit more mobile defensively

    If we can score in the first half its over. Obviously we should get through it comfortably but still not 100% confident. They did nothing for 85 minutes outside of a close range header. The other 5 minutes we fell asleep and conceded 2. We should be fine but they need 3 and their on their turf. Might not be as smooth as the last game.

    Agreed. Ideally would love to see us go 1 up.
    However key for me is that we withstand the onslaught in the first 20-30 minutes. Key to this is having Bitton starting alongside Brown.
    If they are chasing the game this will give space for Forrest and Sinclair to exploit.
    Here's hoping we can complete the job.

    Surely even Celtic can't * up from here...surely?!
    History tells us that Celtic never make it easy for themselves though. The last 2 games we played we went from 3-0 up to 3-2 in the matter of minutes, seems like we conceed in 2s. Same thing happened a couple of times in the EL last year.
    Can't let this happen again.

    Saying that I can see us getting a goal or 2 over there, they'll come at us and we'll hit them on the break with speed.

    I'm predicting a rare comfortable CL play off night, might just make it through the game with just the one pair of boxers.

    2-2 or 2-1 Celtic.

    I just hope we go out and play our way of playing football. Don't want any of this sitting in nonsense as that's not how we are comfortable playing. We try and attack we WILL score at least 1 goal.

    I think sitting in would suit us tonight. They will need to commit men forward right from the first whistle, and we have plenty of pace in attack with the likes of Forrest, Sinclair, Griffiths and Roberts if he plays a part. I think we are in the perfect position to play on the counter attack tonight.

    No way is this team capable of parking the bus under any circumstances. Celtic have to play to win the game and if they do that then I can't see them winning by the three goals. It would be nice if Celtic could give a mature solid defending performance and win away from home. I think both teams will score 2-2 or 3-3 and that would be fine. Just don't try to defend it tonight.
