Awaiting Celtic will be a noisy, passionate, colourful and somewhat intimidating atmosphere despite the open-plan nature of the ground.

Dr Joel Rockwood, a senior lecturer in sports business management, travelled to Sarajevo to take in the clash between FK Sarajevo and rivals FK Željezničar two years ago and produced a documentary about the city, its history and the rivalry between the two clubs.

He labelled the atmosphere "unbelievable".

Celtic have advised fans "not to make travel arrangements to Sarajevo until confirmation of the fixtures, dates and locations have been made".

The first leg is scheduled for Tuesday/Wednesday, July 9/10 with the return leg a week later on Tuesday/Wednesday, July 16/17.
