The former Celtic striker has taken to social media ahead of the Bhoys’ much anticipated Champions League clash with Manchester City.
Former Celtic striker John Hartson has taken to Twitter before the Scottish champions’ Champions League match with Manchester City to wish them luck.
The Hoops find themselves rock bottom with an abysmal goal difference after getting thumped 7-0 by Barcelona at the Camp Nou in the opening game of the Group C.
Pep Guardiola’s rampant City side are next up for Celtic at Parkhead tonight and Hartson has wished Brendan Rodgers’ men luck.
The Welshman, who himself played in many memorable European encounters at the famous old ground, also stated he is hoping for a special Champions League night for his former club yet again.
Celtic are top of the Scottish Premiership but will need to be extra wary after their annihilation at the hands of the La Liga holders a fortnight ago.
Pep Guardiola’s side are unsurprisingly strong favourites ahead of the ‘Battle of Britain’ showdown after their 100 per cent start to the season in all competitions, including six wins out of six in the Premier League.
Games at Parkhead will be crucial for Celtic in the race for qualification, with its renowned raucous and intimidating atmosphere on marquee occasions like this proving the difference along the years.
The odds are stacked against the Bhoys, though if City leave without all three points, Hartson’s and every Celtic supporters’ hope would be a thrilling reality.
