Celtic Preview – Can Celtic progress?
Celtic have enjoyed a successful start to their new season as The Bhoys are unbeaten in their four matches in all competitions to date, which includes two wins in the Scottish Premiership and a previous round win in the Champions League over Icelandic outfit, KR Reykjavik.
Victories in the Premiership over Hamilton Academical 5-1 and a 1-0 win away from home at Dundee United were either side of a 6-0 thrashing of KR Reykjavik in the 1st qualifying round of the Champions League and Celtic once again hold home advantage at their Celtic Park for this upcoming 2nd qualifying round tie.
Overall, it’s now five wins from their last six matches in all competitions for Celtic, while results at home in the Champions League have seen the hosts lose just once out of their last seven matches which has yielded a total of 23 goals for the home side.
Ferencvaros Preview – Can Ferencvaros build on previous round?
A solid 2-0 home win over Swedish Allsvenskan outfit, Djurgarden, saw Ferencvaros progress into this 2nd qualifying round tie against Celtic where they too will be keen to continue their path towards a possible spot in the group stages of this financially lucrative competition.
Ferencvaros earned their spot in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League thanks to romping to another domestic league title as they topped the NB1 by a comfortable 13-point margin ahead of runners-up, Fehervar, winning 23 of their 33 matches of the season.
However, despite their continued success on the domestic scene, Ferencvaros possess limited pedigree and experience at Champions League level and they’ve managed to collect just two away wins from their seven ties on the road in this competition which were at Tirana and Ludogorets.
