Nice vs Celtic: What You Need to Know

Celtic are playing French side Nice on Thursday night and here’s what you need to know about the game.

When?

The game kicks off at 5:15 pm.

Where?

The Groupama Stadium

Where can I watch it?

It’s on Premier Sports and also on Celtic TV for those who are outside the UK and Ireland.

The bhoys have been training at Loughborough University for the past two weeks. Neil Lennon will want the bhoys to be back sharp when the league kicks off in a few weeks, so playing these games will hopefully benefit the whole squad.

Team News:

Leigh Griffiths will not travel to France with the striker back at Lennoxtown working on his fitness.

Celtic are still looking to sign a goalkeeper but Scott Bain will be the number one goalkeeper on the tour with Conor Hazard likely to get game time.

Some Celtic Fringe player will be looking to impress as the league starts back. Players like Klimala, Soro, Bayo and Dembele.

Nice is just the first side Celtic will play on this pre-season tour; Lyon and PSG are scheduled for later on in the month.
