Celtic to host both legs of Champions League qualifier

Celtic will host both legs of their Champions League round two qualifier against Ukranian side Vorskla Poltava at the Albert Bartlett Stadium later this month.

The sides meet on Sunday 22 September and Thursday 26 September with the winner of the two-legged tie heading through the Champions League group stage. It will also be the first time Celtic have played a European game on Scottish soil.

No Scottish side has made it to the group stage of the competition since it was introduced in the 21-22 season.

Elena Sadiku's side beat Finnish club KuPS and FC Gintra in Lithuania to get to this stage, while Vorskla Poltava beat SFK Riga and Ferencvaros in Hungary to progress.

Celtic's home match against Montrose, previously scheduled for 22 September, will now be played on 19 September at Links Park.
