Celtic are in desperate need of a win when they face RB Leipzig in the return fixture in Group F of the 2022-23 Champions League on Tuesday. The Hoops are bottom of the table with just a point and lost 3-1 at the Red Bull Arena last week.
The point for Celtic came in the away fixture against Shakhtar Donetsk but Ange Postecoglou's men face an uphill battle with Real Madrid - against whom they lost 3-0 - also in the same group. The hosts need a volte-face in order to keep their last 16 hopes alive.
Entering the tie third in the group, the Germans are not in a much better place either. They have endured defeats against Donetsk (4-1) and Real Madrid (2-0) so far, before finally picking up three points last week.
