Celtic are due to take on Glasgow Rangers at Ibrox at the end of December.
Celtic may not take up their allocation of 800 tickets in protest against the reduced number of spaces Rangers have made available for them.
And Bain said, ahead of the Old-Firm derby, which takes place in late December, that Celtic will only be more determined to win at Rangers, if no Bhoys fans are there to witness it.
“If there are no fans? Well, it will be good to win then, eh?” Bain said. “I don’t know how it would feel – we’d see on the day – but fewer Celtic fans will mean it’ll only be sweeter if we win the game.”
Bain’s comments suggest Rangers may have made a mistake, as they won’t want to give Celtic any added motivation to win the fixture.
Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers has still not been beaten by Rangers during his time in Scotland.
Rangers are as close as they have been to Celtic in Rodgers’ time at the helm though.
Rangers are just two points behind the Bhoys in the Scottish Premiership table, with Steven Gerrard’s side improving considerably this season.
When Celtic do take on Rangers, it seems likely that Bain will be on the substitutes’ bench, as Craig Gordon remains Rodgers’ number one stopper.
