I like Barca, and surely lightning can't strike twice, but is the Messi factor an issue for anyone else here? They've done OK without him in two away games this season, 1-0 Malaga and 1-1 Atletico, but the CL is different. Thoughts?

I would put Celtic on the same level as a low to mid table Primera side - say Rayo Vallecano - Atletico and Malaga are a level above that. Celtic have that fantastic home support though - narrow Barca victory for me

Barcelona struggles in the Champions League without Messi last season due to having no other quality strikers. This time they have Neymar. Don't follow Celtic all that much but they've lost Wanyama, I see Barcelona winning probably by the odd goal 1-0 or 2-1.

CL elevates sides though. Poor sides that should be getting beaten easily up their game, or maybe are given too much respect by the better side, not sure. I would put Celtic top six Primera Liga in regards to how tough the game should be. If Celtic were on the same level as Rayo it'd be a 4-0 walk in the park, like it is most weeks.

Barca also without Alba and Mascherano

Barca by one or two but no value what so ever

Always a hard place to get a result.
I've bet celtic but won't be too unhappy if they lose  |
|
By:
Found a decent looking bet.
No corner in first 5 mins - 8/15 at mountains Barca will dominate posession from the off and it could be more than 5 mins before Celtic even get a touch. I'm also on Neymar first goal at 11/2. |

6 world cup winners I count in the Barcelona team against a side that would at best be a Championship team.
Backing Barcelona all day with or without Messi. |

why the fcuk are these jocknuts on ITV?

Celtic beat them fair and square last year, is there any particular reason they cant do it again?
|
|
By:
How many world cup winners did they have in their team that lost at Parkhead last season ?
|

By:
Barca wont miss the most overrated player in the history of football, actually I think it's time he moved on anyway, Messi really needs to prove himself in a competitive league.

Morton beat Celtic last week but I wouldnt be putting any money on them to do it again.
Will depend on how much Barca want it today, and in man away CL games particuarly in the group stages they barley break sweat. |

Celtic not lost a home tie in the Champions league group stages since 2004.......21 games
|

By:
Barca players been quoted as saying they want revenge for last years fluke.
Barca -2 decent bet. |
|
By:
Celtic with the home support will surely be up for this and should win by the odd goal, they played well against Barca last year and don't have Messi to worry about. Samaras has shown that he can compete at this level and will be a big threat.

Celtic were very unlucky not to get a result in Camp Nou if my memory serves me well - and thoroughly deserved their victory at Parkhead.
Barcelona were all at sea with ever cross ... defended like schoolboys |

how many times will Celtic's amazing support get a mention tonight?

Struggling to find any value in this match but Charlie Mulgrew FGS at 40/1 is massive. Any free kick around the box he's your man
Naymar is the obvious shout for barca and 6/1 looks decent (usaully 4/1..9/2) Mulgrew FGS & Neymar FGS 40/1 and 6/1 |

Not a Scottish flag in sight.
Scottish team - do me a favour. |

By:
Neymar only 11/4 and 3/1 with bet365 and skybet. 6/1 on here stand out

Is it me or do Barcelona look a bit nervous

By:
A Barcelona juggernaut -2 @ 4s is a decent bet for me

No chance Poppy Celtic are well up for it listen to the crowd
