Club Brugge ace insists side aren’t scared of Celtic in wake of shock Aston Villa win

Brugge ace Ardon Jashari insists they are not scared of Celtic and will go to Parkhead to win in their

next Champions League game.

The Hoops welcome the Belgian side, who stunned previous Champions League leaders Aston Villa

at home thanks to a bizarre penalty conceded when Tyrone Mings picked the ball up in his own box.

They now travel to face the Hoops later this month who of course made Europe sit up and take notice with a

hugely impressive 3-1 win over RB Leipzig this week.

Celtic are now in 15th spot and Club Brugge are in 22nd place with both still having aspirations of reaching the

top eight which would hand them automatic qualification to the next round.

And Swiss international Jashari insists there’s no reason why they can’t go to Glasgow and get another win.

He said: “I think we have to be well prepared against Celtic because they are strong at home.

But we can win there too.

“When we play like that, we can beat anyone.

“After four games we have won two and in the two games we lost against Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan,

we played well too.

“So this victory against Aston Villa was not unexpected to us players. It was an incredible night.

We knew something special could happen. There was something in the air.

“We know that Aston Villa are a top club who were the unbeaten leaders of the Champions League

table so we knew it would be tough. Everyone had to be 100 per cent ready and that was the case.

“And we will have to do the same against Celtic.”

And former Liverpool keeper Simon Mignolet insisted their win against Villa was no shock.

He pointed out: “For me, it was not unexpected, because in other matches we had already shown that we can hold our own.

“We were the better team with chances, but we didn’t score. Luckily we got that goal on a plate.

“Apparently, eight points could be enough to guarantee a play-off position so a win at Celtic would take us through that.

But that’s a long way away.

“It’s a feather in the cap for this club that we already have six points.”
