JUST ONE STEP FROM HEAVEN

Celtic are one of 10 teams in the champions route of the play-off round. The Scottish champions are seeded and will avoid Olympiakos, FC Copenhagen, Apoel Nicosia and Maribor. Brendan Rodgers’ side could face Astana, Qarabag, Rijeka, Hapoel Be’er Sheva or Slavia Prague. Celtic beat Hapoel 5-4 on aggregate in last season’s play-off round.
