  • Intro:

    Celtic coach Ronny Deila and captain Scott Brown look ahead to Thursday's (27th November) showdown with Europa League Group D leaders Red Bull Salzburg at Parkhead.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Ronny Deila, Celtic manager (asked if Thursday's game will be his biggest to date as Celtic manager):

    "There's been a lot of big games, so it's hard to say, but it's an important game of course because if we win this game we are top of the group and are through, so.... it's a very, very important game, but also it's a good game as well. We are going to meet a very good opponent and, and we are going to test ourselves at the highest levels. So, I'm looking forward to it."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Ronny Deila, Celtic manager (asked how big a challenge he expects Salzburg to provide):

    "They are very different from a lot of the other teams we have met. So, they're very aggressive, very intensive with their pressure and they're very direct in their play as well. So we have to cope with that, but we are quite used to that in the Scottish league. It is also a direct league and with a lot of intensity. So, I think it's a game that will suit us good and, and we saw also when we played them away that we could handle it."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Ronny Deila, Celtic manager (on the importance of sealing their place in the next round):

    "Of course. If we win the game, we are in the position we want to be. So, we're really up for the game and it was a lot of energy in the training today as well, so I'm looking forward to it):

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Ronny Deila, Celtic manager (asked if Salzburg are the best team Celtic have faced this season):

    "Yes, I think so. I think so. Maybe Legia (Warsaw - in third round of Champions League qualifying), it's very hard to side. It's good opponents we have met in Europe, so, but it's a quite equal level as well, but Salzburg has some good results and.... have been at a high level now for a couple of years."
