Celtic-Milan betting preview

Celtic-Milan betting preview

Celtic aim to reach the knockout stage for a second consecutive time in the Champions league. A loss for the Scottish champions will leave them with no chance for qualification, but their excellent home record in the competition will provide enough confidence for the players and Manager Neil Lennon. 16 wins out of 23 home fixtures in their group stage games, and a win against Barcelona at home last season shows a side that can overcome any opponent. They sit bottom of their group, but a win against Milan will take them second if, as likely, Ajax lose to Barcelona.

 

Neil lennon’s side preserved their unbeaten Scottish Premiership record after 16 games on Saturday with a victory over Aberdeen, extending the gap at the top to five points. AC Milan, who have not won any of their away games in this season Champions league, leaves coach Massimiliano Allegri with lot to bother him. The Italian side came off from a poor show on the weekend after a 1-1 draw with Genoa, which left the fans angered of their performance.

 

These two sides have faced each other seven times in the Europe competition, three scoreless draws, three Milan wins and a single win for Celtic. The Scottish have lost only once at home to Barcelona in all their Europe games including their group qualification games .Meanwhile AC Milan lost at Camp Nou and managed a draw at Ajax and PSV.

 

Manager Neil Lennon will miss the services of his captain Scott Brown who remains on suspension, but he should welcome back both James Forrest and Anthony Stokes who sat out on the weekend action.

 

The Rossoneri hope that Stephen EL Shaarawy will be available after six weeks out injured, even though not for a start.
