Neil Lennon’s Celtic have had an excellent UEFA Europa League campaign thus far. Can the Scottish champions get their Round of 32 tie off to a winning start when they take on Stale Solbakken’s Copenhagen at the Parken Stadium on Thursday night? The Hoops head to Denmark as the favourites with the bookies.

Copenhagen Preview – Can the Danish outfit make home advantage count?

Stale Solbakken’s Copenhagen are currently in second place in the Danish Superliga table. So far, they have won 15, drawn one and lost five. However, Solbakken’s side are seven points behind leaders Midtjylland. Last term, Copenhagen won the league by 11 points.

After getting past The New Saints, Copenhagen went up against Red Star Belgrade in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers, going on to lose 7-6 on penalties after two 1-1 draws. As a result, they dropped into the Europa League.

In the Europa League group stage, Copenhagen went up against Malmo, Dynamo Kiev and Lugano. Solbakken’s men picked up nine points, winning two, drawing three and losing one. They finished runners-up to Malmo, two points ahead of Kiev.

Copenhagen are not an easy nut to crack at the Parken Stadium. In fact, Malmo are the only team to win normal time on their patch this season. Can they cause an upset against Celtic over two legs in the Round of 32 of the Europa League?

Celtic Preview – Will the Bhoys return to Scotland with a positive result?

After taking an impressive ten points from their opening four Europa League Group E encounters, Celtic booked their place in the last 32 with two games to spare. Overall, Neil Lennon’s men took 13 points from a possible 18. The Hoops won four, drew one and lost one.

Of course, the Bhoys will have wanted Champions League football at Celtic Park, but the Scottish giants could go far in the Europa League this term. At the time of writing, the Glasgow club are available at the tempting price of 50/1 to lift the trophy at the end of the season.

Celtic have been in stunning form since losing to fierce rivals Rangers in the Premiership back in December, as they have won each of their following nine across all competitions. In fact, Lennon’s troops have won 13 of their previous 14 league and cup matches. Also, they have not drawn a game since September.

A victory would be a wonderful result for the Scottish Premiership leaders. However, the Hoops would probably take a draw now if offered, as they fancy themselves to beat anyone at Celtic Park.
