The official Dynamo Moscow v Celtic 2nd leg thread

DINAMO MOSCOW v CELTIC (Champions League: third qualifying round, second leg)

 

Venue: Khimki Stadium

Date: Wednesday, 5 August

Kick-off: 1700 BST

Coverage: Live on BBC Two Scotland and the BBC Sport website, plus BBC Radio Scotland

 

 

 

So, will Celtic's 'major' summer signing Marc Antoine Fortune find his shooting boots this evening in Moscow?? Nobody knows, but we'll all find out before 1900 BST this evening, as our greatest rivals take their team & a few hundred people wearing green & grey hoops to the Khimki Stadium in Moscow for the 1700 BST kick-off of their Champions League third qualifying round second leg.

 

The extremely sharp Russian side which won away from home in the 1st leg at the Tattiedrome will certainly be no push-over. In the first leg, the Russians deserved to get their away win, having converted one of their several good chances & going on to keep a clean sheet away from home. So, alas, the pressure is now on Celtic to put an end to their embarrassing away record in Europe over there in Moscow against a formidable team full of youth, talent, pace & desire. The Russians won't be taking this 2nd leg lightly & neither will their opponents from Glasgow's rougher side, but I'd certainly say that at this point, it looks like Dynamo Moscow are the favourites to win the 2-leg tie.

 

 

Mon the Ruskies!!!! :devil:

 

My prediction - Dynamo 3 v 1 Celtic. (4-1 agg) - as well as Russian newspapers reporting trouble with 'British' football hooligans in Moscow, but very little (if anything) reported in the Scottish press.

Are you sure about the bookies Shroomz ?

 

I have checked both Betfair and Ladbrokes and Moscow are favourites to win the game and, given they won away from home, if they are favourites to win at home they are also favourits to go through.

 

Just an observation.
