"It has otherwise been a strong opening to the 2025-26 season for Vladan Milojevic's side, who boast 10 wins, two draws and just one defeat across 13 matches in all competitions. Domestically, they have been flawless, winning all seven games in the Mozzart Bet Superliga to sit top of the table. Their European adventure began brightly too, as they dispatched Lincoln Red Imps and Lech Poznan to reach the Champions League playoff round."
"Brendan Rodgers' side have also enjoyed a promising start, collecting six wins and three draws from nine outings in all competitions. In the Scottish Premiership, four victories and a draw leave them level on points with Hearts at the summit, while their domestic cup form has been just as encouraging. The Bhoys have reached the League Cup semi-finals, seeing off Falkirk 4-1 and Partick Thistle 4-0 to set up a meeting with Rangers."
Red Star Belgrade hosts Celtic for Europa League matchday one after both missed out on Champions League group stages. Red Star are 10 wins, two draws and one defeat from 13 matches, including seven league victories.

Aleksandar Katai has 11 goals in 10 appearances and is expected to lead alongside Marko Arnautovic. Celtic have six wins and three draws from nine games, sit level with Hearts, and were eliminated on penalties by Kairat Almaty.
