Mika Baur: We know what we have to do in Austria

Mika Baur can’t wait to walk out in front of the Celtic supporters again after witnessing them up close at Celtic Park for the first time.

The 22-year-old German midfielder impressed on his first start in the Hoops against Austrian champions, LASK in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League play-off tie last Wednesday and, if selected on Tuesday night for the return leg, he will relish the opportunity to do the same again.

Speaking in Linz ahead of the match, Mika Baur said of the game at Celtic Park: "The atmosphere and the energy in the stadium. I just knew it before from sitting in front of the TV and now to feel it in real life was incredible.

“We know LASK are a good team. They made a good match in Glasgow, so we know what we have to do tomorrow. We know we need the same mentality and the same energy to hopefully win again.

“It's a different style of football, but I really enjoy it. And in everyday life, just visiting the city, walking around, looking for apartments and all of that. It's a nice time at the moment.”
