Bayern Munich vs Celtic Champions League playoff live time and streaming
The Bavarians have been nearly invincible at home in the Champions League, having not lost a home game since April 2021.
Shashwat Nishant New Delhi Celtic face an uphill battle to make it into the Champions League round of 16, needing a near-miracle to overtake Bayern Munich.
The Scottish Premiership leaders nearly got off to a perfect start in their play-off tie against Bayern, with the Bavarians settling in after Nicolas Kuhn’s first-minute goal was ruled offside. Bayern then took control with goals from Michael Olise and Harry Kane, putting them in a dominant position with a 2-1 lead on aggregate. However, Celtic's Daizen Maeda gave his side a sliver of hope with a quick and instinctive finish.
On the domestic front, Celtic triumphed 3-0 against Dundee United, edging closer to securing the Scottish Premiership title. Meanwhile, Bayern struggled in their 0-0 draw with Bayer Leverkusen, failing to register a shot on target. Despite the stalemate, Bayern still sit comfortably at the top of the Bundesliga with an eight-point lead. The Bavarians have been nearly invincible at home in the Champions League, having not lost a home game since April 2021.
