Match preview
Losing a handful of key players in January does not appear to have rocked the confidence of minnows Bodo/Glimt, who pulled off a shock 3-1 win in the first leg of their Europa Conference League knockout round playoff tie with Celtic.
Celtic Park was stunned by the plucky Norwegians, who had a 2-0 lead by the hour mark last Thursday, despite seeing little of the ball.
Their lead means Celtic will have to play on the front foot at the Aspmyra Stadion to stand any chance of progressing and that points to goals in a game featuring two attack-minded sides.
And high-scoring fixtures are something the Scottish Premiership club are used to - there have been at least four goals in each of their last five matches in all competitions.
Their six group matches in the Europa League featured a total of 28 strikes and this second leg in Norway looks set to play out in the same way.
