Bayern Munich vs Celtic preview
Defeat at Parkhead makes the task of progression to the round of 16 almost impossible for Celtic.
Even victory might not have been enough last week, given Bayern’s ability to blow sides away at home.
The Hoops defended well for the majority of the night before conceding to a stunning Michael Olise strike on the stroke of half time. A lapse in concentration allowed Harry Kane to add a second just minutes into the second half.
The tie has been just about kept alive by Daizen Maeda’s goal with 10 minutes to go.
Brendan Rodgers might want to take notice of Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen, who held Bayern to a goalless draw on Saturday and restricted them to NO shots of any description in the first half for the first time in decades and not a single shot on target in 90 minutes for only the second league match in 20 years.
Might it be the perfect time to play them? Time will tell.
Celts registered 21 efforts at goal beating Dundee United 3-0 at Celtic Park on Saturday, while being able to rest a couple of their key players in the process.
William Hill make them 28/1 to progress and Bayern 1/100. So fair to say them progressing is quite a stretch.

Bayern Munich vs Celtic predictions and tips
Blow away early
This tie could be put to bed early doors, with Bayern having the ability to blow Celtic away in the first half.
They HAVE to respond to the poor attacking showing from Saturday and actually had five shots – with two on target – in the opening 45 minutes last Wednesday.
Celtic will be trying to keep the tie alive in the early exchanges but that might prove tough.
Ol or nothing
Michael Olise scored the opening goal in the first leg and is one of the standouts to perform here.
That was his first goal since mid-January but can be the attacking force down their right.
