The new group phase format has benefitted Brendan Rodgers’ outfit, as they will be in the play-off round with a tasty clash against Bayern Munich as their reward. The famous atmosphere at Celtic Park will be in full effect for the first leg in Glasgow, as Celtic hope for a result to put the pressure on the German giants in Bavaria.

Celtic are, as usual, the runaway leaders in Scotland, but wins over RB Leipzig, Slovan Bratislava and Young Boys are a sign of progress, while they also drew away to Atalanta and put up a good fight against Aston Villa in a game they did not need a result in. A 7-1 defeat to Borussia Dortmund is a warning though, and it will be interesting to see how offensive Rodgers feels he can be, knowing he is a manager that does not enjoy sitting back.

It has been a strange season for Vincent Kompany’s Bayern. They are top of the Bundesliga, and six points clear of Bayer Leverkusen, but lost to Xabi Alonso’s side again in the DFB Pokal. Equally, heavy losses to Feyenoord and Barcelona have raised questions over how effective they are in adversity, but it will be a major step up for Celtic.

How to Buy Tickets for Celtic v Bayern Munich

That atmosphere at ‘Paradise’ is a result of a fiercely loyal support in Scotland’s biggest city, and as such, finding your way into that electric feel will not be easy. Bayern will not have tickets available for the general public, and only season-ticket holders or those with a collection of loyalty points will be able to go through the Celtic website. That means that your options more or less come down to going through third-party ticket sites.
