Celtic vs Bayer: It will be a productive encounter in Glasgow

The Glasgow representatives lost to Livingstone and drew with Dundee United. After seven appearances, Celtic are only sixth in the table.

Bayer have had a successful start to their Europa League group stage campaign. The Leverkusen side hosted Ferencvaros in their hometown, beating them 2-1. Then, the club played two matches in the German championship. First, Bayer performed well on the road against Stuttgart, 3-1. In the previous weekend, the home side secured a 1-0 win over Mainz.
