Celtic boss Neil Lennon eyes victory over Utrecht

Celtic manager Neil Lennon
Lennon believes Utrecht will be tough opponents in the Europa League

Celtic manager Neil Lennon wants his players to take a lead into the second leg of their Europa League play-off against Utrecht.

Lennon's side will host the Dutch outfit on 19 August with the return leg a week later as they look to prolong their stay in Europe.

"Whenever a Dutch team comes they will try to play football and technically they're very good," he said.

"We want to put on a good performance and take a lead over there."

Lennon said Celtic were familiar with one or two Utrecht players, adding: "we will be doing our homework between now and the first leg.

"One of the reasons why the players come here is for the Europeans nights and to sample the atmosphere."
