Celtic will begin their Europa League qualifying campaign away to FC Riga on Thursday, after the Latvians belatedly beat Tre Fiori.

Riga's second-round tie in Skonto against the side from San Marino was abandoned after eight minutes on Thursday night due to high winds.

It was rescheduled for 08:00 BST on Friday, with Riga advancing 1-0.

Celtic enter at the third round after being knocked out of Champions League qualifying by Ferencvaros.

Neil Lennon's side will discover their potential play-off opponents in Friday's draw.
