Celtic have it all to do tomorrow night when they face Ajax, with nothing less than a win required to keep their European hopes alive.

The Hoops didn’t have the best preparation for the game after drawing 0-0 with Kilmarnock and seemingly holding back with Thursday on their minds.

Ajax warmed up for their trip to Glasgow with a 5-1 win over Cambuur and sit three points clear at the top of the Eredivisie league table.

The teams drew 2-2 the last time they met in the opening game in Group A but that won’t be enough for Celtic this time round.

Lady luck will also play a part as they hope group leaders Molde can beat Fenerbahce.

Paradise last hosted this fixture in the group stage of the Champions League in 2013, as Celtic won 2-1 thanks to goals from James Forrest and Beram Kayal.
