There will be a huge clash in the Champions League on Wednesday afternoon, as two sides that weren’t able to kick off their European campaign with maximum points will lock horns. Celtic will have the home field advantage, while Lazio will likely be the clear favorites.

Before Betting On Celtic vs Lazio  

There will be a huge clash in the Champions League on Wednesday afternoon, with both Celtic and Lazio looking to record a first win in the competition this term. The Scottish champions will have the home field advantage, but a response will be needed this week after Celtic were easily beaten by Feyenoord on matchday one in the Champions League this term.

Celtic played a lot of that match with ten men, but their home record will be crucial if they are to stand any chance of playing any further role in the Champions League after Christmas. The Scottish giants have bounced back from that defeat in fine fashion by winning each of their last two in the SPL, but this is a more challenging assignment.

Lazio were involved in one of the most thrilling matches on matchday one in the Champions League, as they claimed a dramatic home point against Atletico Madrid. Their equalizing effort in that clash was netted in the fifth minute of injury time, with goalkeeper Ivan Provedel heading home in a memorable finish.

However, Lazio’s form this term has been patchy to say the least. They have struggled throughout the opening weeks of the domestic campaign, and they come into this match after winning just once in their last five matches across all competitions. A response will be needed this week after Lazio were beaten 2-0 by AC Milan on Saturday.
