Match Facts
This is the first ever meeting between Celtic and Club Brugge – the Bhoys’ eight previous meetings with Belgian opposition have been against KAA Gent (W1 L1), Germinal Ekeren (W1 D1) and Anderlecht (W2 L2).
Club Brugge’s only previous European games against a Scottish team was in the 1992-93 UEFA Champions League group stage against Rangers, drawing 1-1 at home and losing 2-1 at Ibrox.
Celtic have won two of their four matches in this season’s UEFA Champions League (D1 L1), as many as they won in their previous four campaigns combined (W2 D6 L16). They last won three games in a single season back in 2012-13.
Club Brugge have only scored four goals in their last nine UEFA Champions League matches, but two of those goals have resulted in 1-0 wins, beating Sturm Graz on MD2 and Aston Villa on MD4 this season. Brugge’s last five wins in the competition have all been to nil.
Celtic have scored nine goals in four UEFA Champions League games this season, their joint most in a single season along with 2012-13. The Bhoys last netted more in a European Cup campaign back in 1977-78 (13).
47% of Club Brugge’s high-intensity pressures in the UEFA Champions League this season have been made in the middle third of the pitch. This is the highest percentage for any side in the tournament, highlighting the Belgian side’s preference to be more aggressive in midfield areas (only 20% have come in the final third).
Since the start of 2022-23, only Internazionale (64%) have kept a clean sheet in a higher percentage of UEFA Champions League games than Club Brugge (58%), among teams to feature in more than one season.
Club Brugge have five players who’ve played every minute for them in the UEFA Champions League this season (Hans Vanaken, Simon Mignolet, Maxim De Cuyper, Brandon Mechele & Joel Ordóñez); the most of any team in the competition this term.
Arne Engles has three assists in his four UEFA Champions League appearances for Celtic this season, the joint most by a Bhoys player in a season along with Charlie Mulgrew in 2012-13 and Matt O’Riley in 2023-24. The only Belgian player with more in a season is Kevin De Bruyne (4 in 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2020-21, 6 in 2022-23).
Hans Vanaken scored his 16th major European goal for Club Brugge in their 1-0 win over Aston Villa on MD4, going joint second with Gert Verheyen for Brugge in Europe. Only Raoul Lambert (23 in 43 games between 1967 and 1978) has scored more.
