What channel is Bologna v Celtic? TV and live stream for Europa League clash

Martin O’Neill’s side currently occupy the final qualifying spot, sitting 24th in the standings with seven points, and have work to do to seal progress.

But a 3-1 win over Feyenoord in Rotterdam under O’Neill gave them hope before Wilfried Nancy oversaw a 3-0 home defeat by Roma in his only European match in charge.

A victory in Bologna will effectively secure qualification for Celtic with 10 points expected to be enough to guarantee a place in the play-off round.

Should they fail, Celtic will have another chance to secure qualification when they finish their campaign at home to Dutch side Utrecht next week.
