Well its nearly here and the tune is nearly ready to fill the expectant stadium and I for one cant wait.
Think its fair to say that if we can manage to limit the chances that fall to Emenike then we have a great chance tonight. We can get at that back 4 of Spartak for sure and have the players able to score.
biggest miss will be Wanyama in the centre of the park and although Kayal and Brown have their strengths they lack the physical presence that the big lad gives.
Expect a nervy game unless we can get the early goal but i believe that we can win.
A draw will be hellish as i think Benfica will be aiming for that in Barca....
Cant wait!

Don't think McGeady will start. He's just back from long injury but expect to see him come off the bench second half. Going to stick my neck out with predictions.
Celtic 2 Spartak 1
Barcelona 1 Benfica 1
Not putting any money on it mind....

I would go with:
Forster
Lustig
Ambrose
Kwillo
Mulgrew
Brown
Kayal
Ledley
Commons
Hooper
Samaras
Lustig and Mulgrew are more than capable of getting up and down the wing

Think Matthews will play left back with Mulgrew pushed into midfield with Kayal losing out on a start.
No doubt Wanyama will be a big miss.

If that happens i'm launching a water bottle at Lenny
Mulgrew is NOT a midfielder, Kayal is, and a very good one at that, he's looked back to his best since Benfica away

We could use his height in the middle of the park tho?

the last few times ive been shouting to get charlie off the park hes scored or set up a goal. needs to be on the park for his height and delivery alone. Hooper owes a big performance!!

"So whats your thoughts on the score tonight IE? Cheering on Scotland representative in the champions league?"
I think it will be 2-0 to celtic tonight and benfica won't win in barca so celtic will go through. As for cheering you on? I wouldn't go that far. It's no big deal to me if you go thru or not as rangers aren't direct rivals at the moment.
