  • 15' Kyogo Furuhashi is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Celtic FC tonight.

  • 30' Ireland international Liam Scales has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 35' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for David Marshall suffering a number of foals already.
