LASK face an uphill task when they welcome Celtic in the Champions League playoffs return leg, trailing 3-0 from the first meeting. Despite the heavy deficit, the Austrian side created plenty of chances in Glasgow, registering 20 goal attempts, eight shots on target and 1.58 xG. Their inability to convert several clear-cut opportunities was ultimately costly. LASK have struggled for consistency lately, winning just two of their last 10 matches, while Ramiz Harakate remains in the recovery room. There are no other fresh injury concerns for the hosts.
Celtic, meanwhile, are firmly in control of the tie after their commanding first-leg victory and are doing well under Martin O’Neill. The Hoops have won four games in a row and scored 2.40 goals per match across their last 10 outings. Summer signing Camilo Duran impressed in the first leg and will be one to watch again, while Jota remains sidelined.
LASK created 1.58 xG and eight shots on target in the first leg despite failing to find the net. Therefore, Home Team Over 0.5 goals seems like the best betting option for this matchup. Additionally, BTTS and Over 2.5 goals markets seem tempting as Celtic have been scoring goals for fun of late (3.50 goals per match).
This Champions League match will be played on Tuesday 25 August 2026 at 20:00.
