Celtic will host Belgian Pro League side Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League later this month knowing that a win will all but secure their place in the competition's play-off round.

With seven points from four matches so far, it's thought 10 is the magic number to reach the next phase, and with a further four games remaining, the Parkhead side's chances are good.

Like RB Leipzig and Slovan Bratislava, Brendan Rodgers and his players will be keen to once more leverage their strong home advantage, however Club Brugge's impressive 1-0 win over Aston Villa proved nothing can be taken for granted.

Citing everything from Celtic's high pressing to their fast transitions, fans of the Belgian side have taken to Reddit to express where the game might be won and lost for either side.

One user said (loosely translated via Google): "Celtic's midfield is known for its high pressing and quick transitions. Our midfielders will need to be sharp to counter that."

While another posited: "The creativity of Celtic's midfield could pose challenges for us. We'll need to maintain discipline and close down spaces effectively."

In reply to that, a different user said: "Our midfield has been solid this season, but facing Celtic would be a true test of our defensive capabilities."
