Barcelona started their Champions League campaign with three straight victories, though Luis Enrique's side were derailed by a 3-1 defeat to Manchester City last time out. They'll look to get back to winning ways and maintain their position at the top of the table when they travel to play Celtic on Wednesday, though unless Borussia Mönchengladbach pull off an upset by beating City in the concomitant fixture, Barça will book their place in the knockouts regardless.

Celtic’s chances of qualifying for the final 16 are, in contrast, bleak. Anything other than an unlikely victory will scupper their hopes of making it through, with Brendan Rodgers’ side currently sitting rock bottom of Group C and winless. Truth be told, they were never expected to do much after being drawn in such a tough group, and anything other than a heavy defeat will be worth celebrating on Wednesday.

Three big things to know
1. Celtic are unbeaten in domestic competition this season, but winless in the Champions League. Brendan Rodgers’ side opened their Champions League campaign with a dismal 7-0 thrashing away in Barcelona, and will be desperate to avoid suffering a similar fate on Wednesday.
2. The Scottish champions can take some heart from the memories of a famous victory in 2012, when the Catalan giants -- then coached by the late Tito Vilanova -- went down to a 2-1 defeat, despite having enjoyed 74 percent of the possession. Not even the likes of Lionel Messi, Andrés Iniesta, and Xavi at the peak of their powers could see off Neil Lennon's outfit, who were dumped out of the tournament by Juventus in the first knockout round.
3. Both sides are expected to have a full-strength team available, so there will be no excuses for either coach if their side fails to perform.
