It's all Celtic right now as Tom Rogic shanks a shot high and wide from 20 yards after another neat passing sequence.

There's not much of a crowd inside the Lerkendal Stadium, with the visiting fans having no trouble making themselves heard.

Kieran Tierney bombs down the left and flashes a beauty across the face of the home goal but it just eludes Ryan Christie at the back post.

Scott Sinclair drops his shoulder and cuts in from the left to have a pop at goal from near the edge of the penalty box but his effort sails straight into the hands of Andre Hansen.

And we're up and running...

Nearly there in Trondheim as Celtic go into their traditional pre-match huddle, wearing their luminous yellow away kit...

Of course, this is the second competition Celtic have met Rosenborg in this season, having eliminated the Norwegians in Champions League qualifying.

In late July, Odsonne Edouard scored twice and Olivier Ntcham was on target as Brendan Rodgers' side recovered from the loss of an early goal to win 3-1 at home before getting the job done with a goalless draw in Trondheim.

They met in the previous campaign too and, again, Celtic came out on top as James Forrest smashed in a great strike from a tight angle to book a Champions League play-off place after a stalemate in Glasgow.

This will be Celtic's 10th meeting with Rosenborg in total - in all European competition they've only faced Barcelona more often (14).

These two met in Glasgow on the opening evening of the group and it was a tense affair.

Leigh Griffiths came off the bench to head in the only goal with three minutes of regulation time remaining.

Tom Rogic was twice denied by Andre Hansen and the goalkeeper did well to push a shot from Odsonne Edouard on to the post, while Michael Johnston spurned a good opening before Griffiths stepped in to save the day.

Rarely have Celtic ventured away from home in European competition over the last number of years with such expectation of a positive result.

That’s borne out of impressive form and Rosenburg’s lack of impact in this group.

It all looks set up for Brendan Rodgers’ side tonight for a fixture the manager feels he can do without Scott Brown despite the captain returning from injury.

However, Rosenburg have proved sticky opponents in past encounters. Celtic will have to maintain recent form.

Nothing less than victory is surely required if they are to retain hope of qualification.

Since losing 2-0 to RB Leipzig on 25 October, Celtic have won five out of six matches - a draw at Livingston their only blemish - and scored 18 goals while conceding only one, in a rousing 2-1 victory over Leipzig in the return fixture.

"There's been lots of big games and this is the next big game for us," said Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers yesterday.

"We want to go into our last game at Celtic Park with an opportunity to qualify and if we get a victory then we have an opportunity to do that.

"We understand and respect Rosenborg and that respect has grown and they've come off the back of a celebration of being champions again for the fourth consecutive time. So we know it can be a difficult game for us and that is what we will prepare for."

Rosenborg coach Rini Coolen is looking for a balancing act between trying to ensure his side don't end their Europa League group campaign without a point and saving his players' energies for Sunday's Norwegian Cup final.

"We will try to use the best players available, but of course we have to be smart as well - some players will not play the full 90 minutes," said Coolen yesterday, with his side having already clinched their fourth successiv league title.

"Pal Helland came back from injury and is doing well in the last weeks, but I will keep him out of this game because he has to be ready for Sunday.

"There will be players in the starting XI that I can maybe take off a little bit earlier than normal, but we will use the most players possible to have a good result and a good feeling to prepare ourselves for the next game, which is also very important."

Rosenborg have lost all four group games and to progress they would need to beat Celtic, hope that RB Leipzig lose to RB Salzburg, then beat the Germans away by a better score than 3-1 and hope Celtic lose their final game at home to Salzburg on 13 December.

The chances of that happening look slim.

Like Celtic, the Norwegian champions have a cup final to look forward to on Sunday when they meet Stromsgodset.

But coach Rini Coolen has made just two changes from the weekend draw at Bodo Glimt, with Andre Hansen taking over from Arild Ostbo in goal and Yann-Erik de Lanlay starting in place of rested Norway striker Pal Andre Helland.

Avoid defeat is top of the list.

A Villarreal victory at Ibrox combined with a win for Spartak Moscow at home to Rapid Vienna would eliminate Rangers with a game to spare. The Russians are 1-0 up at home after 63 minutes.

A draw keeps Steven Gerrard's side in contention in a very a tight group.

A win would lift Rangers into first or second place going into their final week visit to Austria on 13 December.

Gerrard has yet to lose a home game since he took over in the summer, so fans should be in confident mood.

To progress the Scottish champions must accumulate more points than RB Leipzig over the final two games of the group stage.

They could win both and not make it, since the Bundesliga outfit have the head-to-head edge, winning 2-0 in Germany before losing 2-1 in Glasgow.

Group B leaders Salzburg are as good as through and Celtic fans may be nervous about a Red Bull carve up in Austria. Both clubs are heavily linked with the drinks company but Uefa ruled they are distinct enough to compete in Europe.

Certainly there were no favours done on week one when Salzburg scored late to win 3-2 in Leipzig.

RB Leipzig are at home to Rosenborg on the final week, with Celtic hosting Salzburg.

A win looks like a must for Brendan Rodgers's side this evening...

Tom Rogic returns to the Celtic midfield, with Olivier Ntcham dropping to the bench.

Captain Scott Brown is also among the substitutes, with the midfielder having only managed 21 minutes of football since late September.

Rogic for Ntcham is the only change from the side that won 3-0 at Hamilton on Saturday.
