Celtic vs AZ preview
While the Hoops are in high spirits after their fourth win in succession against Hearts – a run that has seen them score 16 goals along the way – their opponents come into this clash with morale fairly low.
Having achieved an impressive third-placed finish in his first season at the helm last campaign, Pascal Jansen has seen key players Myron Boadu and Calvin Stengs leave this summer and faces a battle to keep hold of captain Teeun Koopmeiners.

Celtic vs AZ predictions
Realistically, a Celtic side that have already played seven more matches of competitive football so far this season and finds themselves in strong form look well worth backing at even money (2.00) to see off an AZ team that have struggled on the road in European competition at the best of times.
