Celtic fans look like finally getting to see a Europa League match on the road on Thursday.

Fans have travelled to Seville and Budapest already this season but those heading to Germany on Thursday look like finally being allowed into the stadium to back Ange and the bhoys against Bayer Leverkusen.

Across Holland, Germany and Austria there has been a tightening up of laws relating to the pandemic but fans from the UK that have a double vaccination certificate dated 1 November or later will be allowed to attend Thursday’s match.

Celtic have been given an official allocation of 1,500 tickets but from social media it seems that hoops fans have been buying home end tickets for the sections closest to the away support.

Not since Copenhagen last February have Celtic had an away support at a European match. That night Neil Lennon’s side drew 1-1, a repeat of that would keep alive into Matchday 6 the chances of the hoops progressing to the last 32 of the tournament, only a win would give Celtic a chance of topping the group and going into the last 16 of the Europa League.
