Match preview

It’s now do or die for Celtic, so can they salvage their European campaign?

The Hoops have just one point on the board, scoring just two goals from an xG figure of almost seven.

This draw came in the reverse fixture, Reo Hatate breaking the deadlock in Warsaw before Mykhaylo Mudryk equalised.

Since then, Ange Postecoglou’s team have twice been outclassed by RB Leipzig, beaten 3-1 in Germany and then 2-0 at home.

This means the Bhoys’ top two hopes are now over, with their full focus on trying to secure the Europa League spot.

For Celtic to achieve this, they must: win here, get a result at Bernabéu and hope Shakhtar lost to RB Leipzig.

Will Celtic Park witness a first Champions League home win since 22 October 2013, exactly nine years ago last Saturday?

Shakhtar Donetsk meanwhile, against all odds, are very much in the mix to reach the knockout stages.

The Ukrainian champions enjoyed a thumping 4-1 victory in Leipzig in September and, a fortnight ago, came agonisngly close to beating Real Madrid.

Oleksandr Zubkov broke the deadlock at Stadion Wojska Polskiego, only for the European champions to equalise in the sixth minute of stoppage time.

So, Igor Jovićević’s team start the night one point below Leipzig, hoping to leap above them before the two meet in Poland in eight days time.

The Hoops have won both previous home games against Shakhtar, 1-0 in 2004 and 2-1 in 2007, so can they complete the hat-trick here?
