We said: Celtic 1-2 RB Leipzig

 Two teams that like to get on the front foot should provide an entertaining spectacle, but Leipzig's defence is more watertight and could keep Celtic at arm's length. Defeat would not be a disaster for the Scottish champions, but victory is surely essential for their visitors, who will therefore play to win. Read more.
