Winner : Celtic
Lask Linz are heading into this match in poor form, having lost their last three games, including a heavy 3-0 defeat to Celtic just a few days ago. They are struggling to score and will be feeling the pressure. Celtic have had a mixed run of results, with a win, a draw, and a couple of losses, but their performance against Lask Linz was very strong.
The recent meeting between these two sides was one-sided, with Celtic winning comfortably 3-0, and they look to be in much better shape overall. Given how easily Celtic beat them last time and Lask Linz’s current struggles, this looks like a game where Celtic should come out on top once again.

- The sides met just six days earlier in the first leg of this tie, with Celtic securing a dominant 3-0 home victory over Lask Linz.
- Lask Linz have lost their last three matches in all competitions, including two defeats by a margin of three goals or more.
- Celtic have struggled for consistency on the road recently, failing to win in their last three away games, including a 0-0 draw and two losses.
- Despite their poor form, Lask Linz average nearly 19 shots per game, showing they create chances but have struggled to convert them.
- Celtic boast a significantly higher average possession rate of 67.6% compared to Lask Linz's 49.8%, indicating they are likely to control the tempo.
- The away side have been far more clinical in front of goal, averaging 2.08 goals per match, while Lask Linz average just 0.38.
- Celtics' defensive statistics are notably stronger across all key metrics, including goals against and overall form, giving them a 100% edge in the defensive comparison.
- The match odds from Bet365 offer a 3.50 payout for an away win, reflecting Celtic's status despite their away-day struggles.
- Lask Linz have failed to score in their last two home matches, which bodes well for a Celtic side that kept a clean sheet in the reverse fixture.
- Celtics' attacking output is ranked 100% superior to Lask Linz based on pre-match stats, underlining the gap in quality between the two squads.
- With Lask Linz unlikely to progress after the first-leg loss, expect Celtic to potentially rotate, but their superior possession and shot numbers remain key advantages.
