Christopher Nkunku to Score Anytime
Christopher Nkunku has been leading the revival charge at RB Leipzig and he has been able to score in his last three appearances for the visitors. The 24-year-old has scored four goals in these three matches and this has been crucial for the visitors, who witness a string of games against Celtic witnessing a lot of goals.
Total goals over 2.5
RB Leipzig have certainly been able to rediscover the scoring touch and the team has managed over 2.5 goals in two out of the last three matches. Celtic are not the strongest team when it comes to defending their own goal and that should be goals at both ends of the pitch.

Celtic vs RB Leipzig: Champions League Team News & Preview
Celtic did not take long to bounce back from the recent loss against RB Leipzig. The victory over St Johnstone coupled with home advantage gives Celtic enough reason to believe that they can still bounce back from a disappointing start to the group. The club are at the bottom of the standings with only one point from the first three matches.
Celtic Predicted Line-Up:
Hart, Taylor, Jenz, Carter-Vickers, Juranovic, Turnbull, Hatate, O'Riley, Jota, Furuhashi, Maeda
RB Leipzig still have an opportunity to qualify to the next round of the Champions League with the team only one point behind Shakhtar Donetsk. The top spot may be out of question for the German team who are slowly showing signs of coming back to their best. The form of players like Timo Werner and Nkunku are very encouraging for the team after a very disappointing run so far.
RB Leipzig Predicted Line-Up:
Blaswich, Raum, Gvardiol, Orbán, Simakan, Schlager, Kampl, Werner, Nkunku, Szoboszlai, Silva
