Aalborg v Celtic

Share


Uefa Champions League,
Group E: Aalborg v Celtic
Venue: Energi Nord Stadium
Date: Tuesday 25 November Kick-off: 1945 GMT


Celtic midfielder Aiden McGeady has recovered from calf and knee problems to travel for the Champions League visit to Aalborg.

"Aiden has a great chance," said Celtic coach Neil Lennon.

Striker Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, who has not played since injuring his groin against Hamilton last month, is also included in Gordon Strachan's squad.

Massimo Donati misses out with a broken toe but fellow midfielder Paul Hartley's ankle knock has improved.

Hartley picked up the injury on Scotland duty but was considered fit enough to take a place among the substitutes at St Mirren on Saturday.

Barry Robson played for an hour in the 3-1 win after recovering from a groin strain incurred in a Scotland training session ahead of last week's friendly with Argentina.

"It is a must-win game for us," said former Celtic skipper Lennon. "I think it will be a British style game.

"We are in good form and we want to get that monkey off our back in terms of winning away from home.

"We have plenty of attacking options and players capable of scoring a goal at any time.

"It is frustrating that qualifying is out of our hands but we have to get on and win this game and that is not a certainty by any means."
