Double strike-force, Rogic and Hatate, Scotland star in - how Celtic could line up in Conference League second leg

Celtic have it all to do in Norway when they face Bodo/Glimt aiming to overcome a two-goal deficit inflicted at Parkhead last week.

The highly organised and efficient Norwegians were worthy winners on the night under the lights at Celtic Park, but the tie is not cut and dried.

It will be a tricky one nonetheless for Ange Postecoglou as he takes his side into the Arctic Circle aiming to avoid a third European elimination this season – but he typically has attacking options at his disposal to try and turn the 3-1 defeat on its head.

There is no away goals rule at play in European competition any longer so extra-time and penalties is an increased possibility but will require a two-goal margin from the Scottish league leaders.

Celtic opted not to train on the pitch last night with inclement weather forecast and it could be a cold night in the Conference League.

Here’s how the visitors could line up in Bodo.
