As expected, Celtic outclassed Nomme Kalju in the Champions League second qualifying round. The Hoops have been scoring goals for fun of late, but Cluj are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the Scottish champions than their previous rivals. Anyhow, Neil Lennon’s troops will give 100% to score an away goal in the first leg and we predict that they are going to adopt an attack-minded approach in Wednesday’s football game.
Dan Petrescu’s troops did well to eliminate Maccabi Tel Aviv in the second qualifying round and seeing that they are brimming with confidence ahead of the visit of Celtic, we believe that they are going to hold the Hoops to a draw in the first leg. Six years ago the two teams met in a friendly, with Cluj emerging triumphant (2-1), but there is a big value in betting on draw this time out.
HIGHLIGHTED PLAYER (SCOTT SINCLAIR):
At the age of nine, Scott Sinclair joined Bristol Rovers youth school and seven years later he signed a deal with Chelsea. However, the winger played no more than five league games for Chelsea as he spent a big part of his career on loan at Plymouth, QPR, Charlton, Crystal Palace, Birmingham City, Wigan Athletic, WBA and Aston Villa. He played for Swansea City between 2010 and 2012, scoring 28 goals in 82 league appearances for the Welsh outfit.
On 19 May, 2015 Sinclair signed a permanent deal with Aston Villa, but he failed to impress in the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign. He scored only two goals in 21 league appearances for the team and the Villans eventually dropped to the Championship.
The Aston Villa winger, who is capable of playing on both sides of the field, has 7 caps for England U21 and it has to be noted that he made 4 appearances for Great Britain, scoring one goal for Team GB. Scott Sinclair was born in Bath, England on 25 March, 1989.
HIGHLIGHTED TEAM (CELTIC):
The Celtic Football Club boasts a proud over 100-year long history which has made The Bhoys a global brand thanks to their unprecedented social awareness that dates to the very beginnings of this Scottish club. Celtic was founded in 1887 with the purpose of alleviating poverty in the immigrant Irish population in the East End of Glasgow by raising money to help their fellow citizens.
The charity legacy continues to this day with Celtic still preserving their charitable traditions through the Celtic FC Foundation. The Celts play their home matches at Celtic Park in front of 60,000 people. One of the two most successful football clubs in Scotland with 47 Scottish League Championship titles to their name, Celtic have a long-standing fierce rivalry with Rangers, with the clubs known as the Old Firm.
European Cup winners from season 1966-67 and runners-up two years later, Celtic have been regular in European competitions since their first appearance in 1962-63. Their other most standout results have been runners-up in the EUFA Cup in 2003 and Intercontinental Cup in 1967.
