Celtic will return to action on Tuesday evening when they take on Bayern Munich at Celtic Park in Champions League Group H.

Brendan Rodgers’s side will head into the match in Glasgow on the back of a 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock at home in the Scottish Premiership.

Bayern have one of the strongest teams in Europe and will head into the match against Celtic as favourites.

Although the Bhoys will be cheered on by a packed Celtic Park crowd, it is hard to see them win against the Bavarian giants.

Former Liverpool and Manchester United striker Michael Owen has pointed out a stat that is not going to make Celtic fans too encouraged ahead of the game.

“Celtic will take heart from the fact that Bayern have conceded seven goals in their last two Champions League games on the road, but you have to go back to 1989 for the last time a Scottish side beat the Bundesliga champions,” Owen wrote on Betvictor.com.

Bayern have some of the best players in the world, and Celtic should be realistic in what they can achieve on Tuesday evening.

A point from the encounter at Celtic Park is going to be a huge result for the Bhoys, who have to make sure that they do not suffer an embarrassing defeat at home.
