Champions League Group F
Celtic Park
Tuesday, 17 October
Kick-off: 1945 BST

Dutch midfielder Evander Sno is expected to deputise for Gravesen.

Strikers Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and Maciej Zurawski are also doubtful with hamstring problems, as is midfielder Aiden McGeady with an ankle strain.

Benfica will be without Manuel Rui Costa, Marco Ferreira and Greek playmaker Giorgos Karagounis who have all been ruled out with injuries.

Its a must win for us tonight, and i think with the fans behind us we can take 3 points! 2-0 to the celts!

i like the sound of that, im looking forward to the celtic v man utd game. In a way id prefer it to be a match that means something in terms of qualification. Im sure it will still be a huge match though due to the england scotland connection.

I really really wouldn't. Tho it will prolly mean something, obviously we would both be thru should the above happen in fixture 4 but there would still be 1st and 2nd to play for. :D
