In the Europa League, Celtic welcome Jablonec to a sold-out Parkhead for their third qualifying round second leg. Ange Postecoglou’s side will be looking to complete the job following a 4-2 win in the Czech Republic last week. Dutch side AZ Alkmaar await the winners in the next round.

Also in the Europa League third qualifying round, double cup winners St Johnstone host European heavyweights Galatasaray at a packed McDiarmid Park looking for what would be a famous victory following the notable 1-1 first leg draw in Istanbul. Danish side Randers lie in wait in the play-off round.

Hibs and Aberdeen are also in action in the Europa Conference League third qualifying round. The Edinburgh side are in Croatia to face Rijeka with the tie locked at 1-1 from the first leg, while the Dons meet Breidablik at Pittodrie leading 3-2 from the first leg in Iceland.

Should Hibs progress they will meet either Bohemian or PAOK in the next round, while an Aberdeen win would face either AEL Limassol or Qarabağ.

All four sides will be looking to reach the play-off round of their respective competitions, where they will be just one step away from the group stage stages and the guarantee of European football until December.

It promises to be an exciting night ahead and here’s how you can watch each of the four ties:
