Prediction: 3-1
Celtic
Leipzig will look to keep their Champions League last 16 hopes alive when they take on Celtic on Wednesday evening. The Red Bulls are eager to make amends for back-to-back losses to Shakhtar Donetsk (1-4) and Real Madrid (0-2) and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the Hoops. Yussuf Poulsen has overcome from illness, while all Konrad Laimer, Dani Olmo, and Lukas Klostermann are likely to miss the game with injuries.
Celtic, on the other hand, have been scoring goals for fun in the Scottish Premiership, but they are still eyeing their first Champions League win of the season. Given the Hoops’ attacking potential, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Both Carl Starfelt and Yosuke Ideguchi are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Timo Werner):
Timo Werner is a German starlet, who began his senior career at Vfb Stuttgart. The German forward, who was born in Stuttgart on March 6, 1996, scored 13 goals in 95 appearances in the league for Die Schwaben and in 2016 he moved to fellow Bundesliga side Leipzig and he impressed with the Red Bulls in the 2016/2017 Bundesliga campaign, scoring 21 goals in the process.
To make things even better for the talented attacker, he represented Germany at the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup and it has to be noted that he provided an assist for Lars Stindl in the title game. Despite the fact that coach Joachim Low rested star players at the tournament in Russia, the Germans eventually won the trophy.
Timo Werner played for the Germany U17 team as well and he won the silver medal with die Mannschaft at the 2012 UEFA European Championship. His main position is centre forward, but he is used as a winger as well. Timo Werner’s contract with Leipzig should expire on June 30, 2020.

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.
