Celtic (0) - (0) Valencia

This will be a difficult game but are comforted by the fact we were the better side in the first game. Whilst Parkhead is a difficult place to go with the crowd right on you we believe this will work to our advantage as if we can keep it tight early on we hope the fans get on the backs of the home team. We have already proved in this competition that we are better playing away from home having won all of our games on the road so far, including the famous win at Anfield. We have a strong team to select from as things stand but once again are disadvantaged by having two games on the same night but that being said we should be able to play in second gear in the League Trophy game as we already have a 3 goal lead. Apparently the team will get a police escort afterwards to fly them up the motorway from England to Scotland for this match with the main worry is that any knocks in the first game will weaken our team for this match. We go with our usual cup line-up with a tweak in tactics. We are without Captain Ito Morientes who is still injured but believe that James Rodriguez can ably take his place in the centre of the park with his cultured left foot. Fingers crossed we can cause the unexpected and sneak in to the semi-finals.
