After the buzz of a comfortable home win versus Dundee United, Celtic are back in action against the might of Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

Indeed, the Scottish champions prepared for Tuesday's mammoth clash in the best possible way, as they brushed aside Jim Goodwin's side with ease at Celtic Park - which was a good response after losing 2-1 to tomorrow's opponents last Wednesday.

Now, Brendan Rodgers' team travels to Bavaria with a positive mindset, though they will be acutely aware of the task that has been asked of them at the Allianz Arena on Matchday Ten.

The hosts drew 0-0 with Bundesliga winners Bayer Leverkusen away from home on Saturday - a game which Vincent Kompany's side had to defend for large portions against Xabi Alonso's dangerous outfit. 

Ryan McGinlay joined Hamish Carton on today's edition of The Celtic Way's morning briefing, where the pair spoke about Saturday's impressive performance, as well as tomorrow's daunting game against Kompany's superstars.

Could a Crystal Palace reunion take place between Jeffrey Schlupp and Michael Olise? Will Daizen Maeda prove key against Bayern's mistake-ridden backline? Can Celtic pull off the seemingly unthinkable and book their place in the last-16 of the Champions League?
