Projected Champions League pots: Who Celtic could get including Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa

Celtic have regained control of the title race, as well as a Champions League group stage position.

The competition will take on a new aspect next season, with a Swiss model replacing the customary six-game portion to determine who makes the final 16. Scotland holds an automatic slot for season 24/25, however at least one qualifier must be played from 25/26 onwards due to a dip down the coefficient chart.

If the Hoops win a close title race with the Rangers this season, they will face two clubs from each pot – one, two, three, and four – without seeding. This might lead to meetings with Arsenal, Manchester Utd and Liverpool, who feature in new pot projections by Football Rankings.
