NEIL LENNON has told the support he hope this is a game to savour under the lights at Celtic Park as the bhoys look to go beyond the last 32 of this competition for the first time in seventeen years.
Not since it was formatted differently and called the UEFA Cup have Celtic made it to the last 16.
The bhoys are in poll position but just guard against complacency or any of the nonsense which resulted in an early Champions League exit at the start of the season.

?️ NL: "I want us to be in the last 16. We are good enough to do that but we have to play well. Our mentality domestically has been fantastic, we've come up short at this round in the Europa League and we want to build on that." #CELCOP #UEL

Celtic will have a strong squad to draw from for the game. The biggest misses will be Olivier Ntcham and Ryan Christie. Oli is injured while Ryan is suspended from the first leg.
The bhoys have beaten better opposition at Celtic Park this season but can take nothing for granted.
Let’s get right behind the team on Thursday night and smash this out of the park!
