MATCH PREVIEW:
Celtic will look to secure a berth in the next qualifier of UEFA Europa League as they face Jablonec at home with a 4-2 lead in the tie.
The Scottish side were at their best in the first leg as goals from Abada, Furuhashi, Forrest and Christie ensured a sizeable advantage. Jablonec scored through Pilar and Bitton’s own goal.
A surprise loss to Midtjylland in the UCL Qualifiers dumped them out but the Celtic Park faithful believe that their side is capable of European football.
The Czech side, Jablonec as mentioned have it all to do in unfamiliar territory and it would be a huge result, if they can withstand the Celtic pressure.
They have not been in the best of form in recent weeks even in the domestic circuit.
Rada’s side are winless in their last 3 matches across all competitions. Hence a win here could kick start their season.
Line-ups:
Celtic:
Hart, Ralston, Bitton, Starfelt, Taylor, Soro, McGregor, Turnbull, Abada, Christie and Furuhashi
Jablonec:
Hanus, Stepanek, Martinec, Zeleny, Krob, Povazanec, Plestil, Kubista, Kratochvil, Pilar and Dolezal
Prediction: Celtic 2-0 Jablonec
Celtic has a massive advantage coming into this one; 4 goals and playing in front of a home crowd.
It could not get any better for the Scottish side. New signing, Joe Hart could well get a game here as well.
Jablonec has a tough ask and we do not see them progressing. Celtic should win this one comfortably.
