I hope MON selects Sinisalo, but I expect him to pick Schmeichel. Arthur probably over Murray for the suspended Trusty. A load of pick your poison type selections in midfield & upfront tbh. Some of the players have decent attributes but glaring weaknesses too.
Celtic have had some good results away from home in Europe (Feyenoord, Bologna, Stuttgart) but have been soft & poor domestically - there are contradictions everywhere.
The huns will be direct & physical & are dangerous from set pieces. I think they’ll try to go for it backed by rabid hordes so Celtic will need to stand up to it, & take advantage if they overcommit. MON sides usually don’t hold back in these affairs so I reckon it will be feisty & furious. The managers traded some barbs in the Friday press conferences & the stakes are big with Hearts out in front.
Celtic will have 2k-2.5k in the corner. Have the entire stand behind the cup game next week.
Happy 74th birthday to Martin O’Neill btw, I understand he lurks on TFK.
