The Feyenoord team will challenge the Celtic team in a 1e ronde Champions League in Stadion Feijenoord Stadium, Rotterdam on Tuesday, September 19, 2023. For streaming coverage of Feyenoord vs Celtic, preview and how to watch it, see in this article.
Feyenoord will host Celtic in the opening match of group E of the 2023/24 Champions League on Tuesday 19 September 2023. This is a match that is considered easy for the home team, who are in devastating form. Meanwhile, Celtic will have to fight hard to surprise stronger opponents.
Feyenoord is showing their best side by winning the last 3 matches in all competitions. In these 3 matches, they scored up to 17 goals and only conceded 3 goals. They also finished second in the Dutch domestic league, only losing on goal difference to PSV Eindhoven.
Arne Slot’s team has strength in the attack line, with striker Santiago Gimenez who is on fire. Unfortunately, the player from Argentina had to miss this match because he received a red card. However, Feyenoord still has many other options such as Bryan Linssen, Luis Sinisterra and Alireza Jahanbakhsh.
On the other hand, Celtic is a big team in Scotland, which always competes for the title with its eternal rival, Rangers. They also often appear in European competitions, although they rarely make it out of the group phase. This season, they managed to beat AZ Alkmaar in the play-off round to qualify for the main round of the Champions League.
Ange Postecoglou’s team has strength in midfield, with midfielder Reo Hatate who has recovered from injury and is ready to play. The Japanese player has the ability to regulate the tempo of the game and create opportunities for his teammates. Apart from that, Celtic also has striker Kyogo Furuhashi who is sharp and agile.
Facing this important match tonight, Feyenoord lacks experience in European competitions, having just returned to the Champions League after being absent for 18 years. Feyenoord also has to be careful with pressure from the public and media, who expect them to qualify from a fairly difficult group. They have to compete with Atletico Madrid and Lazio, who are strong teams from Spain and Italy.
Looking at the background of the two teams, Feyenoord is the favorite team to win this match. The defending champion of the Dutch Eredivisie has advantages in terms of performance, quality of players and support from supporters. However, Celtic will of course try to provide fierce resistance, even though they will most likely lose.
