Prediction: 1-1
Midtjylland
All eyes will be on Celtic Park when Celtic and Midtjylland face each other in the Champions League second qualifying round, 1st leg. The Hoops failed to impress in the 2020/21 Scotland Premier League season, with the team finishing the process 25 points behind their bitter local rivals Rangers. New boss Angelos Postecoglou is on a quest to bring glory days back to Celtic Park, but Tuesday’s Champions League clash will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts.
Trio Ajer – Edouard – Rogic missed the Bristol City friendly, but they should be fit to face Midtjylland in the first leg. The Danish vice-champions, on the other hand, are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Considering that Celtic are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score.
