Celtic have decided against training on the pitch ahead of the Europa Conference League second leg against Bodø/Glimt. Typically, clubs make the journey across ahead of a European game to train then spend the night before the game.
According to The Daily Record, Celtic have made the decision not to train on the pitch at The Aspmyra Stadion and will instead train at Lennoxtown before flying over to Norway.
The weather is forecast to be treacherous in the Arctic Circle as Celtic look to reverse the two-goal deficit. Jose Mourinho’s Roma know only too well what can happen at this ground, having lost 6-1 in the EL Group Stages. However, Ange will have hopefully learned from the mistakes of the first leg and be ready to make a go at qualification for the Last 16.
Postecoglou’s side were well beaten by the Norwegian Champions as the visitors to Celtic Park made sure that Postecoglou’s side couldn’t find their flow. The visitors exploited Celtic’s weaknesses down the left-hand side for two goals whilst the third came from a wicked deflection. Daizen Maeda’s goal could give Celtic the added incentive to go out on the attack given that the away goals rule has been scrapped. Celtic need two clear goals to force the game to extra time.
The weather is forecast to be 2c with 20
mph winds and some sleet showers….hard
ly treacherous.
