CEL Vs LIL Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Celtic’s horrendous Europa League soiree draws to a much yearned for close today.
This season is just not unfolding in Celtic’s favour. From the Scottish league to the Europa League, the side has been a mere sitting duck in the 2020-21 campaign, a side which has seen its dilemma worsen with each passing outing.
Their plight was perfectly typified in the side’s foregone encounter against AC Milan. Looking up for the task for the first time this season, Celtic raced into a 2-0 lead, one which put them in an extremely healthy position to walk away with the full points from the contest.
However, the side failed to make the most of its strong position as it once again crumbled and fell apart as a side. Left with only themselves to blame for their 4-2 defeat, Celtic’s howler of a shambolic collapse saw the club continue their winless spree in the tournament.
CEL Vs LIL Fantasy Probable Winner
Where Celtic are still trying to forage their first win in the Europa League, Lille on the other hand are yet to lose a clash in the tournament. Going from strength to strength, the group leaders will rip apart a mundane Celtic side on the day.

Fantasy Picks
Goal-Keeper
Celtic are set to opt for a change in the goal-keeper’s department, one which will see Scott Bain be handed out a chance today. And given his sprawling expertise and awareness to occupy the right positions, he’ll be our pick as the goal-keeper.
Defenders
The group’s most immaculate defensive unit taking on the side with the least number of goals means only one thing. Today’s outing will unfold in a cleansheet in Lille’s favour, a clash where they end up spurning anything Celtic try to throw their way.
It sees us opt for all of Jose Fonte, Reinildo and Tiago Djalo from the side for the day’s encounter.
Midfielders
Celtic might have lost their shine as a unit but Ryan Christie has continued to wage a lone battle for the side. He’s assisted the most number of goals for the club at two, a player who has shown why he’s held in such high stature.
We have the indomitable pairing of Callum McGregor and Scott Brown join up from the side, two names whose ability to clobber attacking plays and clean up the ball will see them be tasked with making life cumbersome for Lille today.
Lille on the other hand will see the flair of Luiz Araujo make a way into our setup.
Strikers
The power packed attacking names from Lille will continued this docket of our Dream 11 side. We begin with top scorer Yusuf Yazici with the striker packing a real punch for his side this term.
He’s joined up by Jonathan David who has the two assists to his name with Jonathan Bamba wrapping up the set of picks from Lille.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Yusuf’s 6 goals see him step into our team as the captain while David is the vice-captain.
Fantasy Team
Bain, Fonte, Reinildo, Djalo, Christie, Araujo, Callum, Brown, Yusuf, Bamba, David
