Celtic will look to respond to a difficult week in Europe as they welcome Falkirk in the Scottish Premiership at Parkhead this Saturday (kick-off: 3pm).
Martin O’Neill’s men enter the game wounded after their 5-1 (5-4 aggregate) defeat away to LASK on Tuesday night saw their Champions League qualification hopes go up in flames. Unbeaten domestically, Celtic will hope to get the defeat out of their system fast.
Their visitors, Falkirk, are still looking for their first league win, and first goal, after losing to St Mirren on opening day and drawing 0-0 with Motherwell a fortnight ago. However, head coach John McGlynn has several injury concerns ahead of the game as he looks to get his new-look team firing.
