Celtic have 14 potential opponents in Monday’s Europa League draw with Neil Lennon’s side avoiding the big guns after finishing top of their group.

Ajax, Sevilla, Inter Milan, Manchester United, Arsenal and RB Salzburg will join the hoops in the seeded section for the draw that takes place at 12 noon Celtic Park Time.

After tonight’s final group stage matches the unseeded teams in the draw will be:

APOEL (Cyprus), FC Copenhagen, Getafe, Sporting Lisbon, Eintract Frankfurt, Club Brugge, Olympiakos, Bayer Leverkusen, Shakhtar Donetsk, Ludogorets, Wolfsburg, Roma, Wolves and AZ Alkmaar.

Celtic can’t be drawn against Cluj or Steven Gerrard’s side who finished runners-up to Porto after a 1-1 draw tonight at Ibrox.

The Round of 32 won’t take place until February 20 and 27 with Celtic playing the first leg away from home.

The three German sides- Eintract Frankfurt, Bayer Leverkusen and Wolfsburg- would appear to be the toughest possible opponents alongside Roma which would involve a return to the Italian capital three months after knocking out Lazio.
