Match Prediction: Celtic vs RB Leipzig
The "Hoops" have only allowed Rangers to surpass them once recently. This exception aside, they continue to lead the league with minimal challenges. Since Brendan Rodgers' return, their strong performance has remained unchanged. Meanwhile, the "Bulls" have maintained their level, despite the unexpected advancements of Bayer and Stuttgart, solidifying their positions among the Bundesliga leaders. They have confidently secured fourth place ahead of Borussia Dortmund.
In Scotland, things remain stable. Although Aberdeen has started strong, even managing to claim points against the favorites in a 2-2 draw, this represents Celtic's only setback in the early season domestically. The "Bulls" have also performed well, recently halting Bayer's unbeaten run while continuing to contend at the top of the Bundesliga.
However, the Germans are struggling in the Champions League. Regular participants in the knockout stages, they have yet to earn a single point this season, facing tough competition from Atletico (1-2), Juventus (2-3), and Liverpool (0-1). Celtic has experienced a variety of outcomes in the tournament, starting with a crushing 5-1 win over Slovan Bratislava, followed by a 1-7 loss to Borussia Dortmund, and a scoreless draw against Atalanta.
