Celtic should secure safe passage to the Champions League league phase when they take on Austrian title winners LASK in the second leg of their qualifying play-off in Linz on Tuesday. The Hoops are defending a healthy 3-0 lead from last week’s meeting clash at Parkhead thanks to goals from Benjamin Nygren and a brace from summer signing Camilo Duran.
Celtic were knocked out at this stage on penalties by Kairat Almaty last year after successive 0-0 draws but they are 1/16 to get through this time and we fully expect that to be the case. Exactly how the Scottish champions manage to do that remains to be seen, but we think Martin O’Neill’s men will claim a draw @ 14/5 against a LASK side who have only lost once at their Raiffeisen Arena home in the last year.

Form Guides
LASK form guide
LASK are in the European Cup for only the third time in their history after ending a 60-year wait to be crowned Austrian champions again last season. They clinched the title after amassing 20 points from their final eight games and have continued that impressive form at the start of this campaign.
Dietmar Kuhbauer’s side had won their opening four fixtures by a combined 16-1 scoreline before suffering defeat at Parkhead . At home, they have won six out of eight matches since last tasting defeat, a 5-1 drubbing by RB Salzburg in February, and you have to go back to the opening game of the 2025-26 season for the last time they failed to score on home soil.
Therefore, a score draw against in-form Celtic @ 7/2 is added to our LASK vs Celtic tips , while you could also go for BTTS @ 1/2 if you fancy there to be a winner on the night.
Celtic form guide
Like LASK , Celtic have picked up where they left off last term and head to Austria on a 13-game winning streak in competitive action, a run that saw them clinch yet another Scottish league and cup double in May. Four of those victories have come this season and the most emphatic have been on the road, with Kilmarnock thumped 5-1 and Dundee United 4-0.
That should give Celtic huge confidence heading to Austria , where the Hoops have yet to win in six visits, and they should also be well rested after their scheduled weekend match with St Johnstone was postponed due to their European commitments.
Nygren has scored in all four of Celtic’s matches this season and the Swede is 2/1 to continue than run against LASK, while new arrival Duran is 9/4 to make it four goals in three games.
