Key events
This is the third time Celtic have played Bayern away from home, all in the Champions League. The first two were in the group stages, a narrow 2-1 defeat in 2003-04 and a more emphatic 3-0 defeat in 2017-18. Two of the goalscorers that night, Thomas Muller and Joshua Kimmich, are in the Bayern squad tonight.
We’ll have updates from the night’s other Champions League matches. AC Milan lead Feyenoord 1-0 at half-time, which makes it 1-1 on aggregate. Santi Gimenez, signed from Feyenoord earlier this month, scored after 36 seconds.
The other matches kick off at 8pm.
Brendan Rodgers on what Celtic need to do to win
We’ve got the one opportunity. We’ve got to be clever, we’ve got to be bright, we’ve got to be brave in the game. And if we can do that, we’ve shown, and history’s shown in sport, that anything can happen.
Preamble
Hello and welcome to live coverage of Bayern Munich v Celtic at the Allianz Arena. It’s Mission: Near Impossible for Celtic, who are 2-1 down from the first leg in Glasgow and have a very poor record way from home in Europe. The bad news is that it’s highly unlikely they will go through; the good news is that, if they do, it’ll be their greatest European night in a generation.
Kick off 8pm.
