Is Celtic vs Slovan Bratislava on TV? Kick off time, channel and how to watch Champions League fixture | OneFootball

Celtic will take on Slovan Bratislava as they kick off their third successive season in the Uefa Champions League.

However, the Scottish side have not reached the round of 16 since the 2012-13 season, and it remains to be seen if the new format will suit Celtic more.

Celtic host Slovan, but afterwards have more difficult challenges against Borussia Dortmund, Atalanta and RB Leipzig.

Slovan on the other hand have come through four qualifying rounds to reach the league stage, and are the first side from Slovakia to play in 14 seasons, and only the fourth in history.

When is it?

Celtic vs Slovan will kick off at 8pm BST on Wednesday, September 18 at Celtic Park in Glasgow.
