Celtic will face Borussia Monchengladbach in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.
Charlie Nicholas has predicted on Skysports.com that Celtic will lose against Borussia Monchengladbach in the Champions League.
The Scottish Premiership club will take on Bundesliga outfit Monchengladbach in Germany in Group C on Tuesday evening.
Former Celtic forward Nicholas believes that the Bhoys will fail to pick up a single point from the encounter at Borussia-Park.
The former Scotland international has backed Monchengladbach midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud to create problems for Brendan Rodgers’s side.
The 20-year-old German has created four chances in four Bundesliga appearances and two in two Champions League matches so far this season, according to Squawka.com.
“Gladbach ripped them apart in Glasgow and did it without four or five of their best players, so I fear the worst given they are woeful away from home,” Nicholas wrote on Skysports.com.
“I’m not sure what they can do now. Will they just sit in and rely on Moussa Dembele’s pace on the counter-attack? Gladbach don’t concede many so it looks a tough ask.
“Thorgan Hazard and Raffael could come back in as well, but I’m looking at Mahmoud Dahoud as a really dangerous and unpredictable player who will trouble Celtic.”
A footnote added: “Charlie Predicts: 2-0 and Dahoud to score first.”
Celtic are at the bottom of the Champions League Group C table with just a point from three matches.
The Bhoys are unlikely to finish in the top two of the group, and it looks like they will also fail to end up third.
The Hoops will head into Tuesday evening’s match against Monchengladbach on the back of a 1-0 victory over Aberdeen away from home at the Pittodrie Stadium in the Scottish Premiership.
