Celtic vs Feyenoord Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League

Prediction published on 13/12/2023, 06:39  by Sridhar in Champions League Predictions

Celtic will hope for a positive end to a disastrous Champions League campaign as they finish at home against Feyenoord. This Group E matchday six will be played at the Celtic Park in Glasgow on Wednesday. The hosts are 4th in the group with one point and are confined to stay there irrespective of the result here. The visitors are guaranteed to finish 3rd, where they start this round on six points, and transfer to the Europa League. Celtic endured a difficult campaign drawing one and losing four matches in the season so far. In fact, they haven’t won any of their last 15 matches in this competition – drawing three and losing 12. There have only been seven instances of a side enduring a longer barren run in this competition or its previous avatar of European Cup. Celtic’s difficulties are amplified with their poor record at home, drawing three and losing nine of their last 12 home Champions League matches.

Feyenoord won 2-0 on matchday one against Celtic and ironically, have only been marginally better than their hosts. Goals on either side helped the Dutch ease into that result, although they followed it up with three losses and one win. Interestingly, two of those three defeats have come on the road and they are coming off a loss in this competition in their last match against Atletico Madrid. The losing streak on the road is now nine matches for Feyenoord in the Champions League, which only goes on to highlight their struggles on the road. The soothing factor is a run of five wins over their last eight away matches in all competitions, although two losses from their last three matches home and away suggest the Dutch could be struggling to even make an impact here.
