    Celtic to win 3-0.

    Forgetting we’ve not included Bayo in the squad, we’ll bring him on to waste time with 5 mins to go & as a result, we’ll have to forfeit the game 3-0 to Valencia.

    That’s the Celtic we all know & love.

    Seen the drew 0-0 at home again today. Don’t think they are as good as folk make out, we only had ourselves to blame for Thursday. Press them and and see if we can get a goal first half. They will surely be resting a few.

    Dead rubber this game imo, wouldn't go out and use just youngsters but guys like Mcgregor, Christie, Forrest don't need to play in this.

    Exact opposite for me, the longer it stays nil nil the better chance we have later in the game. A single Celtic goal and it’s game on, especially in the second half.

    We lose a goal early and it’s curtains.

    IF we start this game with real urgency, tempo and high pressing and go for an early goal within the first ten minutes, we may just have a chance.
    We need a performance like the way we started against Man City a few years back. We need to really go for it early on and get that first goal.

    If we do that, we have a chance to take control of the game, grab a second goal in the first half and it truly is game on.

    But if we start this game like we have done 95% of our European games, and like we did against the huns and even how we played most of today, then we won't get a foot hold, we won't put the fear up Valencia and they will ride the game out with a high probability that they will score.

    Nothing to play for really, we're *.

    Bain
    Toljan Boyata Ajer Hayes
    Christie McGregor
    Forrest Edouard Burke Weah

    ​
    Should go for something like that, just play a fast front 4 and play the long ball for a change.

    We need to get on the front foot and definitely need to score first we're not good enough to try and sit in.

    We’re not good enough to go to the Mestalla and beat Valencia by being on the front foot.

    If it’s nil nil at half time we have a chance.

    If we get the first goal then who knows. Not expecting much, just hoping for a better performance than thursday

    As much as the optimist in me wants so badly to see a legendary come back, I've seen us get beat away from home abroad so many times I can't actually see it happening if I'm being honest.

    So my prediction is 1-3 Celtic :36:

    When Celtic play anyone I'm always in high spirits thinking we're going to win wether it's Barca, Psg, the Huns or partick thistle. It's just who I am. I've always that feeling well sneak it somehow against the big teams.

    I'm predicting a 3 or 4nil win for Valencia. Depressing even writing this but going by the last 2 European games Ive been at (valencia & anderletch), I just can't see how this celtiC team can do it. I'll still race home from work to watch this one but I know deep down, we're out on Thursday not even scoring a goal.

    Im slowly but surely leaning towards the “Knick an early goal and you never know camp”.

    Come Thursday in Valencia I’ll be full of alcohol induced bravado and discussing who we might be facing in the last 16. :celt_2:
