An early warning for Celtic as Kolbeinn Sigthorsson meets a deep pass from the left and sends a looping volley over the diving Craig Gordon and against the base of the post.

The fans inside the Friends Arena are making quite a racket, even though the 54,000-capacity ground is maybe half full.

There are around 400 Celtic supporters tucked in a corner as Odsonne Edouard gets us started.

Celtic manager Neil Lennon tells BBC Scotland Sportsound his team won't sit in as they attempt to reach the group stage.

Lennon said: "I don't think we can play that way. We know if we score, AIK will need four. We're playing very well and looking to keep that going.

"I imagine AIK will come out more and try to force the issue at some stage. We'll have to defend well, as we did last week, and look to counter-attack. I'd like us to get control of the game when we can.

"We'll come under pressure at times, but need to be concentrated to see it through. Just make sure we don't give any needless opportunities to the opposition.

"We have a decent lead but it's not insurmountable."

A bonus for Celtic is news that experienced Norway striker Tarik Elyounoussi is on the home bench tonight. The 31-year-old missed the first leg through suspension and had to come off after half an hour with a calf problem at the weekend. He might get thrown on if AIK are chasing it in the second half but their star striker is clearly not 100%.

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has a handy 2-0 lead to protect in Stockholm but he is not about to change his attacking strategy.

"We're a front foot team and know we're capable of scoring goals, we've shown that already this season," he said yesterday.

"I don't think we can sit in for 90 minutes. It would be folly to ask players to do something alien to them.

"If we score one that would put us in a tremendous position in the tie. There may be bad moments we have to weather, but we're capable of scoring goals here and getting a positive result."

Ever wondered who is the last one off the Celtic team bus? Watch this for 90 seconds and find out...

Celtic endured a frustrating first half against the Swedes in Glasgow, with Mikey Johnston, Odsonne Edouard and Callum McGregor denied by goalkeeper Oscar Linner,

However, James Forrest made the breakthrough shortly after the interval, with Linner unable to keep out a powerful strike. Edouard then doubled the lead with a lovely free kick, while good chances were spurned late on to make it a more comfortable evening.

Goals from on-loan Rostov midfielder Anton Saletros, defender Rasmus Lindkvist and wing-back Heradi Rashidi in Sunday's 3-1 win away to Ostersunds mean AIK remain second, four points behind leaders Djurgarden, in the Allsvenskan after 21 games.

Former Birmingham, Sunderland and Hull midfielder Sebastian Larsson will be fresh after missing that one through suspension.

Legia warmed up for this one with a 3-2 win at Lodz, which leaves them four points off top spot after five outings and with a game in hand.

Last season's top scorer Carlitos was missing, with coach Aleksandar Vukovic playing down reports of a fall-out with the Spaniard. Will the 29-year-old be included at Ibrox?

Rangers will have had scouts at the game to see Legia concede after a run of six clean sheets.

Celtic and Rangers are the only sides with 100% records after three rounds in the Scottish Premiership.

The defending champions brushed Hearts aside 3-1 in Glasgow, while Steven Gerrard's men were made to work hard for a 1-0 success at St Mirren.

So, how did tonight's opposition get on? We'll get to that in a moment...

Celtic boss Neil Lennon makes three changes from the 3-1 weekend win over Hearts. New loan signing Fraser Forster is ineligible, so Craig Gordon is back in goal.

Midfielder Olivier Ntcham and striker Vakoun Bayo also drop out, with Mikey Johnston and Odsonne Edouard returning to the team.

Lennon's line-up tonight is the same that started last Thursday's 2-0 first-leg win over AIK, bar one player - Nir Bitton is in at centre-back for the injured Jozo Simunovic.

Celtic: Gordon, Ajer, Jullien, Bitton, Bolingoli, Brown, McGregor, Christie, Johnston, Forrest, Edouard.

Substitutes: Hazard, Griffiths, Bayo, Hayes, Morgan, Ntcham, Ralston.

Rangers battled to a creditable draw in Poland but the team's efforts have been rather overshadowed by a Uefa punishment for sectarian chants from fans.

Responding to behaviour during the home leg against St Joseph's on 18 July, European football's governing body ruled that 3,000 seats be closed for tonight's game. For those of you familiar with the stadium, the areas chosen by the club are the Broomloan Stand front section one and club decks six and seven.

But it doesn't stop there. Uefa are set to rule tomorrow on further sectarian singing during last week's visit to Warsaw.

Rangers have already said they will not ask for any tickets for their next European away game, with a statement adding: "fans responsible for this partial closure need to understand that they are damaging our club".

The statement went on to warn that "a further incidence" in the second leg against Legia "could lead to a ground closure".

Celtic will be disappointed to miss out on the Champions League for the second successive year but Neil Lennon's men have responded well to that third qualifying round loss to Cluj,

AIK came to Glasgow with a cagey game plan and were out-played for long stretches. The Swedes will need to open up on home soil and that should leave gaps for the visitors to exploit.

If Celtic score first, then the tie is all but over. If AIK can haul one back early, then we have a game on our hands.

Welcome to another Europa League qualifying double-header, with Celtic and Rangers well placed to progress to the group phase of the tournament.

Celtic take a 2-0 lead to Stockholm against AIK, while Rangers managed a 0-0 draw away to Legia Warsaw last week.

So far, so good.

Can the Glasgow rivals get the job done this evening? Stay with us as the action unfolds.
