Prediction: 1-2
Celtic
Wednesday’s postponed fixture at Global Energy Stadium pits together Ross County and Celtic, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the 2021/2022 Premier League season. The Staggies’ main goal is to secure the top flight survival, while the Hoops are eager to regain the domestic trophy. Ross County have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team extending their unbeaten run to four games thanks to a 3-2 triumph over Dundee. Celtic, though, will pose a much bigger threat for the hosts than their previous rivals.
Defender Connor Randall, who limped off with injury at the weekend, is unlikely to feature in Wednesday’s clash. The Hoops, on the other hand, recorded a hard-fought 1-0 win over Motherwell at the weekend. The capital club aim to melt Rangers’ advantage in the standings, and given their five-game winning run in the national championship, away triumph should be considered. Kyogo Furuhashi has joined the likes of Jota, Giorgos Giakoumakis and Ajeti in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Boli Bolingoli-Mbombo):
Boli Bolingoli-Mbombo is a left winger who was born in Antwerp, Belgium on July 1, 1995. Bolingoli-Mbombo is a product of Beerschot youth academy, but he played for Club Brugge during his youth career as well. The pacey winger made his first-team debut with Club Brugge on July 26, 2013 in the opening match of the 2013/2014, coming as a substitute for Maxime Lestienne in the dying minutes of the game.
On March 19, 2015 Bolingoli-Mbombo produced one of the best performances of his career as he scored a brace against Besiktas in the Europa league last 16, helping Club Brugge make it to the quarter-finals of the European competition. The Belgian footballer, who is a cousin of Manchester United attacker Romelu Lukaku, has yet to earn a cap for the national team.
Boli Bolingoli-Mbombo’s main position is left winger, but he is used as a left back as well. In 2017 he moved to Rapid Vienna and he has been playing for the Austrian side ever since.
Highlighted Team (Celtic):
The Celtic Football Club boasts a proud over 100-year long history which has made The Bhoys a global brand thanks to their unprecedented social awareness that dates to the very beginnings of this Scottish club. Celtic was founded in 1887 with the purpose of alleviating poverty in the immigrant Irish population in the East End of Glasgow by raising money to help their fellow citizens.
The charity legacy continues to this day with Celtic still preserving their charitable traditions through the Celtic FC Foundation. The Celts play their home matches at Celtic Park in front of 60,000 people. One of the two most successful football clubs in Scotland with 47 Scottish League Championship titles to their name, Celtic have a long-standing fierce rivalry with Rangers, with the clubs known as the Old Firm.
European Cup winners from season 1966-67 and runners-up two years later, Celtic have been regular in European competitions since their first appearance in 1962-63. Their other most standout results have been runners-up in the EUFA Cup in 2003 and Intercontinental Cup in 1967.
