Celtic are going to need something positive against Serie A side Lazio on Wednesday night in the Champions League. Following their opening game loss to Feyenoord, the hosts cannot really afford another defeat.
Wednesday 8pm: Celtic v Lazio
Champions League Group E match at Celtic Park
TV: TNT Sports
However, Maurizio Sarri’s Eagles aren’t in the best of shape so a victory isn’t out of the question for the Glasgow side. Let’s get stuck into the markets and find some value bets.
Over 2.5 Goals
Granted Celtic don’t come up against the calibre of opposition akin to the Serie A on a weekly basis but they’re in great goal-scoring form. The Bhoys have scored nine over their last five matches and seven over their three home fixtures this season.
Lazio have kept a grand total of one clean sheet this season and without the talents of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, who opted for Saudi money over the summer, they are just not able to control games anymore.
They are scoring though, netting five over their last five and four over their four away games this term. We saw against Atletico Madrid that Lazio don’t know when to give up and they’ll see this game as an opportunity to pick up three points. But Celtic will too. We can’t pick a winner but both should score and we’ll surely see a third and Over 2.5 Goals with so much to play for.
Kyogo Furuhashi to Score Anytime
Celtic’s Japanese star Kyogo Furuhashi was a huge disappointment in the Champions League last season, scoring no goals in his six games. No doubt this will be in his head and he certainly wants to impress on the international stage after missing out on playing at the World Cup last year.
With four goals over seven Premiership games this season he’s started the season in good form and with Lazio conceding plenty of late, seven over their last five, we think he’ll finally open his Champions League account. It’s Furuhashi to Score Anytime next up.

Ciro Immobile to Score
Lazio’s Italian striker Ciro Immobile loves Champions League football, back in 2014 with Dortmund he scored four in six and then in 2020 scored five in five for Lazio. We won’t mention his Sevilla nightmare for obvious reasons, he only played three times for them in the Champions League anyway.
He has two in six starts this season for the Eagles and he represents the type of threat that Celtic’s back four just isn’t used to in the Premiership. He’s the man for big occasions and he’s likely to revel in Wednesday night’s atmosphere so I fancy Ciro Immobile to Score Anytime.
Over 4.5 Cards
Celtic tend to keep things pretty clean, they’ve averaged just a card per game this season across competitions while Sarri’s Lazio are averaging two per game. So we should see three at the very least. The Champions League though is not the Scottish Premiership and in facing Italian opposition and a few wily characters among the Lazio ranks like Pedro, Luis Alberto and Felipe Anderson we can certainly see a few Celtic players being caught out by their trickery.
Lazio too, well, it’s a Maurizio Sarri side. They might love to keep possession and pass and move the ball up the field clinically but they’re also more than capable of playing cynically too. We should easily see Over 4.5 Cards being brandished here.
Over 9.5 Corners
We’re going to see a pretty open game. Both sides need to win and while Lazio might start with soaking up some pressure they’re still going to have to come out and attack as the match progresses.
Celtic don’t really know any other way of playing and will be at it from the off, trying to score early, something Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool always aimed for in the Champions League. Both sides then should have plenty of chances meaning we should see a hatful of corners over the 90 minutes and I’ll side with Over 9.5.
