If you don’t know your way around Wikipedia we’ve got you covered with information on Celtic’s first round Champions League opponents.
FC Alashkert
The club was originally founded in 1990 but dissolved in 2000 before being resurrected in 2011.
Not to fear, Celtic have a lot of experience playing zombies.
They are champions of just a SIX team Armenian League and have played 12 European ties to this point – winning four, drawing four and losing four.
They conquered St Johnstone back in the 15/16 season.

It’s a fair jaunt for the traveling Celtic support! The time difference is 3 hours ahead of UK time.
