Cluj captain Mario Camora has spoken ahead of the Romanian side’s trip to Glasgow this week and says he and his team mates will be going for all three points at Celtic Park.
The bhoys were stung big time by Dan Petrescu’s men in August and after twice coming back to a position where they would have qualified for the play-off round of the Champions League – Cluj hit them hard and got the win.
It’s not knockout football this time so it will be a very different game from the one in August – Celtic have a better idea of their best starting XI and will be going all out to exact some revenge.
However, the Cluj captain is gunning for the win.
Camora told RecordSport: “We are expecting Celtic to give everything. They were criticised when they lost to us and it would have hurt them so we expect a reaction. We know it will be tough.
“We are aiming for three points. If we don’t play for that then there is no point turning up.

“But not let’s forget, we are a team who have already shown what we can do by beating a club like Lazio . If you have belief and spirit, you can beat anyone.”
Neil Lennon will know his and his team’s pride is at stake as well as three points. From a Celtic perspective the club feel like we should have beaten Cluj the first time around and to suffer another defeat just over a month later would rub salt in the wound.
