    I have a feeling they will sit out for a draw. They don't concede many and they will be happy to see a goalless draw

    Can’t wait for the AEK games! Only concern for me is playing away in Greece which is historically tough, but it’s very much mindset. Sporting went into Athens last year in the CL group stage and put Olympiakos to the sword 3-1, which is no easy feat on Greek soil. Celtic can do the same with AEK.

    Don't know much about AEK Athens.

    Thought this was quite interesting:

    'A so-called "triangle of brotherhood" has developed between the most heavily supported left-wing fan clubs of AEK, Marseille and Livorno. The connection is most ideologically one.[61][62] On 25 April 2013, Fenerbahçe S.K. fans lifted a banner supporting AEK Athens, saying "AEK, ΚΡΑΤΑ ΓΕΡΑ", meaning "AEK, hold on tightly".[63] The clubs are also connected by Lefter Küçükandonyadis, who played for both teams. However, it is not confirmed whether the clubs have a brotherhood. Also AEK's and St. Pauli's left-wing fans, have a strong friendship and their connection is mostly for ideological reasons.'

    Probably a long shot but anyone know any bars in Blackpool that stream Celtic tv to watch this on?

    Away leg only in the early stages.

    Both play-off games will be on BT.

    Rogic
    Edouard
    Think thats the best formation to go with, look most comfortable defensively and attacking. Eboue in if Ntcham is out.

    Assuming that Boyata is off to Fulham (?)
    (if not I'd start him instead of Lustig)

    Got to admit ive a worrying feeling about this tie. It will be a step up from rosenborgs and we were terrible over there. Dont know anything about Athens beside the fact im worried, big time lol. I think if we beat aek we should have no issues in getting goals at malmo HH


    On a side note shove arzani up your *, bring paddy home

    Their captain has been ruled out of the first leg, midfielder. Will take it.
