Celtic v Club Brugge Preview
Celtic’s Form
Celtic came into the 24/25 season following another “double” winning the Scottish Premiership and Scottish Cup. In the Champions League, they were knocked out of the Group Stage but following the format change of the competition their 7 points from their opening 4 Champions League games has them with a genuine chance of reaching the knockout stages. They also currently lead the SPL with a phenomenal 34 points from their opening 12 league games.
Celtic opened their Champions League journey taking full advantage of the new format beating Slovan Bratislava 5-1. However, they got their seasonal dose of Champions League reality in the following matchday being comprehensively beaten 7-1 by Dortmund. However, in the third matchday, they had tightened up by drawing 0-0 away to Atalanta and their recent 3-1 win over RB Leipzig has them in a great qualifying position.
They’re a different beast when playing at home and the crowd should give them the needed edge to win.

Club Brugge’s Form
Club Brugge had a fantastic 23/24 season whereby they initially finished 4th in the Belgian Pro League regular season but would go on to win the Champions Play-Offs following a strong end-of-season run. They also reached the Semi-Finals of both the Belgian Cup and Europa Conference League. This year they’ve started solidly in the league with 28 points from their opening 15 league games though that puts them 6 points behind league leaders Genk.
In the Champions League, they lost their opening game 0-3 against Dortmund before earning a 0-1 win over Sturm Graz. Their 3-1 defeat to Milan put them in a difficult qualifying position but their shock 1-0 win over Aston Villa in the last round shows they aren’t to be underestimated
They may not be favourites, but this is still a game they will have targeted for points.

Key Players To Watch
Kyogo -Celtic
The Japanese attacker (29) has been a crucial component of Celtic’s success since signing for the club in 2021 scoring 80 times and assisting 18 from 150 games across all competitions and remains their most reliable attacking threat in 2024.
Kyogo has 7 goals and 3 assists across 17 matches in all competitions this season but is not fancied to score in this game with him 9/2 to score first and 6/4 to score anytime.
Christos Tzolis - Club Brugge
The Greek LW (22) has been the club's most consistent goal threat in the 24/25 season so far with 8 goals and 2 assists across 20 games in all competitions. He averages 3.71 shots per game, 7.04 attacking penalty touches and 4.22 Progressive Carries putting him in the 98th, 98th and 85th percentile for all attacking midfielders and wingers making him a constant threat for opposing defences.
He is 9/1 to score first and 3/1 to score at any point in this game.
Celtic v Club Brugge Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Celtic 2-0 Club Brugge
Celtic’s Champions League campaign thus far has been a mixed bag of results and performances. However, their recent victory over Leipzig has put them in a great position at the halfway point of the competition.
Club Brugge shocked Villa last time out in this competition and they can’t be discounted in this game.
Home advantage should be enough to get Celtic over the line.
Best Bet: Celtic Win + Under 3.5 Goals @ 21/10
