Europa League · 4Celtic vs Beşiktaş Preview
Celtic's European campaign has been nothing short of disastrous. Sitting 35th in the league stage with four defeats in their last five outings, Martin O'Neill's side have conceded goals at an alarming rate, shipping three per match on average across their Europa League fixtures. O'Neill has publicly acknowledged the need to "find a way to win European games," but pressure is mounting and Celtic Park's famous atmosphere alone may not be enough to reverse this slide.
Beşiktaş, by contrast, arrive in Glasgow brimming with confidence. Eighth in the league stage standings, Vincenzo Italiano's men have won three of their last five matches and recently kept a clean sheet that delighted their manager. Italiano has praised the impact of forward Oh Hyeon-gyu, noting that deploying two strikers has sharpened their attacking threat considerably. With automatic knockout stage qualification firmly in their sights, the Turkish side have every reason to travel with intent.
Beşiktaş's away win at 2.23 represents the strongest value on offer here. Celtic sit 35th in the league stage with four defeats in five matches, conceding goals at an alarming rate. The Turkish side, positioned 8th, have won three of their last five and recently kept a clean sheet that pleased manager Vincenzo Italiano. Form disparity alone makes the visitors favourites to collect all three points at Celtic Park.
The over 2.5 goals market at 1.67 also deserves serious consideration. Celtic have shipped roughly three goals per Europa League fixture this season, and their defensive frailties show no sign of improving. Beşiktaş, with Italiano deploying a two-forward system featuring Oh Hyeon-gyu, carry genuine attacking threat. Even if Celtic score through sheer home desperation, the visitors should ensure the total climbs above the 2.5 threshold.
Both teams to score at 1.52 rounds out the selection. Celtic Park will generate an intense atmosphere for what Martin O'Neill himself has called a must-win fixture. That urgency should produce at least one home goal, while Beşiktaş possess the quality to find the net against a defence that has been consistently porous. The combination of Celtic's desperation and Beşiktaş's clinical forward line makes mutual scoring a likely outcome.
