Command Analysis

Celtic

Current form

At the end of the last season, Celtic was once again the best in the national championship. In general, over the last 13 years, the team has given the title to its sworn enemy Rangers. For the third time in a row, the Celts will start in the main part of the Champions League. Here they have no success - two previous attempts to reach the playoffs ended unsuccessfully.

Brendan Rodgers' men are having a flawless new season. They have played five rounds in the national championship without losing a single point. Moreover, https://www.celticfc.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celtic have won all five of their victories with a "dry" score, and the difference between goals scored and conceded is a solid 14-0.

In the Celtic squad, it is impossible not to mention Japanese Kego Furuhashi . The footballer became the team's top scorer last season and now great hopes are pinned on him.

Disqualifications and injuries

All the players are in good shape, only Navroki's appearance on the field is in question due to injury.

Interesting trends for betting

Four of Celtic's last five Champions League games have seen at least three goals scored
Celtic have scored more than one goal at home in their last four games
The team scored first in the previous seven matches

Tentative line-up : Schmeichel - Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor - Engels, McGregor, Hatate - Kühn, Furuhashi, Maeda.

Slovan Bratislava

Current form

Slovan can definitely put the current Champions League draw down on its assets. The team's 11 previous attempts to qualify ended in failure. This time, they managed to beat four opponents and get into the main tournament in an updated format. In the decisive match, Vladimir Weiss's team beat the strong Danish Midtjylland with a 3:2 home win, while away there was a 1:1 draw.

In the Slovak championship, Slovan has been unrivaled for six seasons in a row. This year, too, the team took the lead at the start, and after six matches played, it has 15 points. However, the team’s weak defense is a cause for concern – eight goals conceded.

The leader of the Slovak club is undoubtedly the Armenian legionary Tigran Barseghyan. In 11 matches played this season, he managed to score eight goals and make two assists.

Disqualifications and injuries

Paushek and Adler are injured.

Interesting trends for betting

Slovan have lost only twice in their last 14 Champions League matches
In 8 of the previous 11 matches between the Slovaks in the Champions League, there was an exchange of goals scored
More than two goals have been scored in Slovan's last four matches

Tip and bets

TipCeltic win with a handicap (-1.5)

1.90

Slovan gave their best in the qualification, but today in Glasgow it will clearly be tough for the Slovaks, after all, the hosts have experience, crazy support of the local crowd and excellent current form. Brendan Rodgers has built an excellent game model, where the defense is far from the last role - in five rounds in the national championship, the Celts have not conceded a single goal. It is unlikely that the guests will be able to open such a defense to their opponents even once today, while they themselves regularly allow failures near their goal, which the Celtic players, we think, will take advantage of more than once.

Our prediction is a Celtic win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) at odds of 1.90

Will the prediction win?

TipSlovan won't score

2.00

Bet on total

When choosing a bet on the total, we recommend starting from the reliable defense of the hosts, who have been working flawlessly at their goal at the start of the season. Plus, Schmeichel has been showing himself excellently in the frame.

Second bet - Slovan will not score with odds of 2.00

Bet on the exact difference in the score

In the national championship, Celtic won five matches and celebrated success in four of them with an advantage of two or three goals. It is highly likely that today the hosts will achieve another victory in a similar style.

Prediction: Celtic win by two or three goals with odds of 2.55
