Celtic Preview – Can Celtic get result at Celtic Park?
Celtic Park will be under the floodlights for Thursday evening’s clash with Italian giants, AC Milan, as Celtic look to continue their progress in this season’s European competitions, and the group stages of the Europa League.
A 2-1 defeat at home to Hungarian outfit, Ferencvaros, saw Celtic make an early exit from the Champions League after beating KR Reykjavik 6-0 but they’ve since bounced back with Europa League wins over Riga and Sarajevo, both of which came away from home.
Celtic will be desperate to set the record straight after being handed a 2-0 defeat at home by Old Firm rivals, Rangers, on the weekend and the hosts have lost just twice by 2 goals or more in their last 15 home ties in the Europa League as well.
AC Milan Preview – Can AC Milan continue run?
A 2-1 win over their domestic rivals, Inter Milan, on the weekend saw AC Milan chalk up a 13th straight win in all competitions although it should be noted that four of these victories were achieved in pre-season friendlies.
Nevertheless, AC Milan have also progressed through the qualifying rounds of the Europa League with wins against Shamrock Rovers, Bodo/Glimt and Rio Ave, although the latter required a win on penalties after the scores were level after normal time.
Results away from home in the Europa League have been a little more modest though for AC Milan as they’ve managed to win just three of their last nine on their travels within 90 minutes and just two wins by a 2+ goal margin, so this gives Celtic hope here.
