Celtic Analysis

The home team is currently in 24th place, having earned 8 points from 2 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses. In their penultimate match, they lost at home to Roma (0-3). In their most recent match, they drew away to Bologna (2-2). In their last game played in the Premier League, they drew with Hearts away (2-2). In their last 10 home games, Celtic has 7 wins and 3 losses. Defensive solidity has not been their strength, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 7 games, but their attack has scored regularly, finding the net in 5 of the last 7 games in this competition. Their games tend to have goals, as 25 of their last 29 home matches saw more than 1.5 goals, and 21 of the last 29 had more than 2.5 goals.

In the last match in this Europa League, the home team drew 2-2 against Bologna. The home team is expected to line up in a 4-3-3 tactical system, with Sebastian Tounekti, Daizen Maeda, and Yang Hyun-Jun as their main offensive threats. In midfield, Callum McGregor will be responsible for controlling the pace of the game, particularly noted for his creativity and ability to distribute passes that can disrupt the opponent’s defense. Reo Hatate will miss this game due to suspension.

Utrecht Analysis

Utrecht comes into this match following a defeat, losing 0-1 at home to Sparta in a match valid for the Eredivisie. In the last match in this Europa League, the visitors lost to Genk (0-2).
