Celtic is getting ready to play its first Champions League match of the 2024–25 season at Parkhead this evening against the Slovakian team SK Slovan. The Hoops, who won just one of their six games in the competition last year, placed last in their group and will now compete in the new group phase. The team led by Brendan Rodgers will play eight games in an effort to advance to the knockout stages. Tonight, they take on Slovan at Paradise.
The league champions of the Scottish Premiership enter this game fresh from a convincing 2-0 triumph against Hearts at Parkhead on Saturday. Celtic’s flawless start to the season was maintained with goals from Arne Engels and Luke McCowan. The Hoops have won all five of their league games without giving up a goal thus far. With a victory this evening against the Slovakian team, they will now be looking to begin their Champions League campaign in a similar manner. Engels’ skill in the midfield could be crucial to their ambitions of winning all three points.
Why Arne Engels may be essential to Celtic
On transfer deadline day, the Hoops broke their previous record transfer cost of £11 million to sign the 21-year-old central midfield player with Augsburg of the Bundesliga. It’s possible that they have great expectations for the young gem’s potential at Parkhead given their willingness to spend so much money on him.
