Parkhead

CELTIC face an intriguing Premier Sports Cup quarter final clash against a Falkirk side who can’t remember what it’s like to lose a league game.

The Hoops started their Champions League campaign in midweek with a sensational display and justified 1/5 favouritism by slaughtering Slovan Bratislava 5-1.

Brendan Rodgers’ men look unplayable just now and it’s clear he’s assembled an outstanding squad this term.

Falkirk might not be Champions League standard but they come to the east end of Glasgow with a formidable record after starting their season in the Championship in impressive style.

It’s now over 500 days since they last lost a league game and they romped to League One glory last season with an Invincible campaign.

Now this is obviously quite the step-up, but they are packed full of players with top league experience and have a very good manager in John McGlynn.

Celtic have of course started their league campaign in perfect fashion with five wins out of five and they are yet to lose a goal.

How the bookies view it: Celtic enormous good things

You won’t get rich backing Celtic at a prohibitive 1/14 with nearly all firms, while the Bairns can be backed at a huge 28/1 with 10Bet. The draw is 10/1 with bet365.

Recent head to heads: Falkirk bid to end 30 year wait

It’s been 15 years since Falkirk were in the same league as Celtic and since then they have played a League and Scottish Cup tie with the Hoops comfortably winning.

Falkirk’s last win at Parkhead was in 1994.

Players to watch

Liam Scales was Celtic’s hero in midweek when he netted the opener and won the Man of the Match award. He’s a threat from set pieces and is one of the few Celtic players who might represent some value at 10/1 to score anytime with bet365.
