2015-16 UEFA Champions League Qualifiers

If we get to the group stages every team we will face will be better than Malmö.

If we can't beat them over 2 legs we don't deserve to be in the champions league. It's as simple as that.

 

Rosenberg and adu will both miss the first game as they're suspended.

 

Not a bad away trip going to Sweden. We have to win this tie. Ronny probably knows them quite well too.

 

I know. Fkn mental. We should be happy with this draw. They wont beat us.

 

To be fair apart from skenderbeu i think the rest were all going to be hard games, i suppose there are a few pluses and a few drawbacks-

Pros: Scandanavian team ronny should know a good deal about.
Travelling wont be an issue- should be direct flights and its short haul.
Weather will be grand.
We've beaten 2 swedish champions in the last 3years in champions league.
Playing quite poor domestically

Cons: They played Champions League last year so have some decent pedigree.
They have a few ex premier league players who have good experience and wont fear parkhead.
They have put red bull salzburg out 2 years running.
I would rather be at home in the 2nd leg.

 

Werent we 2-0 down from the away leg ?

Romped home leg but it looked like extra time for a while

Didn't feel easy!

 

I'm embarrassed. Place is in meltdown because we've drawn Malmo..

 

I watched the last 5 mins, enthralling stuff seeing as RB only needed a goal and Malmo were a man down.


Which means that Adu guy will be suspended for our game.

 

But they'll play him then Malmo will get kicked out of the competition for fielding an ineligible player :smiley-laughing002:

 

We are favorites anyway

 

Yes, Rosenberg and Adu will miss the game at CP. Malmö are a very good side at home, so we need to score atleast 2 or 3 goals in the first leg.

Rosenberg the main man? Well then, hopefully some can put some new clean briefs on..

 

Malmo are currently seven points off the pace in sixth spot after 18 games of the Swedish league campaign.
The Swedes will travel to Parkhead for the first leg of the play-off.

 

Weren't Helsingborgs the best team in Sweden one of the last times we went there, and ended up beating them comfortably?

 

On the plus side not a long distance to travel

would always be hard whoever we drew just need to keep a clean sheet and win and then try nick a goal over there which we are more than capable of doing

 

This.

 

To be fair, the 2-0 game at Karagandy's place was one of Virgil's first competitive games and he was still finding his feet... we also had Mouyokolo playing...

It wouldn't happen now

 

Have a feeling this is a tie where Bitton will have to be at the level he was on Wednesday.

 

We are Celtic. We will win. Do not worry. This isn't complacency. It's realism.

 

Everything you need to know about Malmo...

The Swedes - champions of their domestic league for the past two seasons - staged a magnificent fightback from a two-goal first-leg deficit to beat Austria's Salzburg 3-2 in the last round.
They currently sit mid table in the Allsvenskan with eight wins and seven draws from their 18 games so far.
One notable name in their ranks is ex-Celt Jo Inge Berget.
They will be confident of facing Scottish opposition - they defeated Rangers 2-1 in the third qualifying stage of this competition four years ago and humiliated Hibs 9 (NINE) 0 in the Europa League qualifying in 2013.
