Barcelona won La Liga last season but were knocked out in the quarter finals by Atletico Madrid. They'll be looking to do much better this season and should be able to get off to a winning start with a home win over Glasgow Celtic. The Spanish team suffered a big shock on Saturday though losing at home to promoted Alaves. Hell have no fury like a Barcelona scorned and they'll be wanting to get back on top form here. Celtic had a great result at the weekend beating Glasgow Rangers 5-1. The Scottish Champions have had a hard time getting to the group stages. They've had to win three ties to get here but haven't won any of their away matches and lost to Lincoln Red Imps and Hapoel Be'er Sheva. Hardly good form going into an away game with Barcelona and the Spanish giants can get a win on a -2 handicap here.
