Form guide • Celtic fans with long memories will remember the Hoops' only previous European meeting with Romanian opponents; Charlie Nicholas scored twice as they beat FC Timişoara 2-1 at home in the 1980/81 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, but a 1-0 loss in Romania – courtesy of a Dan Păltinişanu strike – spelled an away-goals defeat for Billy McNeill's side. • Astra have lost their last three European games but have a decent record in their seven continental away fixtures (W5 D0 L2). Their 5-1 matchday one loss at Dinamo Zagreb was their worst European result to date. Trivia and links • This will be Celtic's 299th UEFA club competition game (the first 298 ended: W141 D51 L106); the return meeting in Romania will be their 300th. • Romanian sides are unbeaten in their last four games in Scotland (W3 D1). The coaches • Celtic coach Ronny Deila took charge of the Hoops in June 2014 following a successful spell at Strømsgodset IF in his native Norway.
