Celtic Face Ferencváros in Europa League Return

Following recent setbacks against LASK and Rangers, Celtic are set to kick off their Europa League campaign with a match against Hungarian side Ferencvaros. UEFA has officially confirmed the fixture details after Celtic's elimination from Champions League contention due to their away defeat at Ibrox. The Hoops previously defeated Ferencváros in both home and away fixtures during an earlier Europa League encounter.

UEFA officials have been appointed for the match, with Patrik Kolarić named as referee alongside assistants Luka Pajić and Ivan Starčević. VAR duties will be handled by Mario Zebec assisted by Jan Boterberg, while Dario Bel serves as the fourth official. Manager Brendan Rodgers has expressed his desire to secure a victory in this opening game of their European campaign.

Celtic fans are eager for results on the pitch rather than officiating decisions following recent season-altering losses.
