Celtic v FK Jablonec – team news, kick off time and where to watch

Celtic face FK Jablonec tonight in the Europa League Third Qualifying Round Second Leg as Ange Postecoglou’s side look to seal their place in the Play-Off round against AZ Alkmaar. The Hoops take a 4-2 advantage into the game after an impressing attacking display in the Czech Republic last weekend. A convincing win against Dundee followed at the weekend and the mood around the club has lifted ahead of tonight’s game, especially with the news that 60,000 fans will be making their way to Paradise for the first time since March 2020.

Team News

Leigh Griffiths trained this week but may not be included in the matchday squad. Odsonne Edouard’s future remains up in the air but he recovered from a slight knock and should be available should the manager choose to call upon him. Apart from that, there are no fresh injuries to concern the Celtic manager ahead of the game.

James McCarthy could be included in the matchday squad as he looks to make his Celtic debut. The arrival from Crystal Palace missed the weekend’s win over Dundee but will be hoping that a few days training will have convinced Ange that he is ready to make his mark tonight. Christopher Jullien, Mikey Johnston and Karamoko Dembele remain sidelined.

Predicted Team: Hart; Ralston, Welsh, Starfelt, Taylor; McGregor, Rogic, Turnbull; Christie, Kyogo, Abada.

Kick Off Time

The game will Kick-Off at 19:45 (CELTIC PARK TIME). 

Where to Watch

For the first time since Celtic’s 5-0 win over St Mirren on March 7th, a capacity Celtic Park will be allowed. This means that the vast majority of Season Ticket Holders will be descending on Glasgow’s East End for the game. Celtic TV will stream the game for subscribers outside the UK & Ireland.

However, if you are unable to go for whatever reason, the club have announced that it will stream the game on a Pay Per View platform.

Come on Celtic!
