Celtic XI vs Feyenoord – Predicted lineup and team news

Celtic and Feyenoord, both eager to turn their fortunes around in the UEFA Europa League, will face off at De Kuip this Thursday evening.

With only a few games left in the group stage, both clubs are struggling near the bottom of the standings, making this clash vital for their hopes of advancing to the knockout phase.

Feyenoord currently sit 29th in the overall Europa League Phase rankings, having collected just three points from four matches.

Meanwhile, Celtic occupy the 27th spot with four points from the same number of fixtures. This match provides a pivotal chance for each side to revive their European campaign and improve their chances of qualification.

Celtic team news

Celtic will be missing several important players as interim manager Martin O’Neill prepares his squad for the trip to Rotterdam. Notable absences include Alistair Johnston, Callum Osmand, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Jota, Kelechi Iheanacho, and Marcelo Saracchi.

Carter-Vickers’ injury is a significant blow, as he recently underwent surgery on an Achilles problem sustained during the third Europa League match against Sturm Graz. O’Neill has confirmed that Carter-Vickers is unlikely to return before April.

With Iheanacho sidelined for a few more weeks due to a hamstring injury, Celtic will likely look to Daizen Maeda and Sebastian Tounekti to spearhead the attack. Callum McGregor is expected to continue his midfield role alongside Reo Hatate and Arne Engels, following his recent spectacular 95th-minute winner against St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership.

Celtic predicted lineup

Possible Celtic starting XI: Schmeichel; Ralston, Trusty, Scales, Tierney; Engels, McGregor, Hatate; Maeda, Kenny, Tounekti.

When will the match kick off?

The match will kick off at 5:45pm BST on Thursday, 27th November.
