Celtic are in Kazakhstan for what has quickly become the most crucial game of the season so far, taking on Kairat Almaty for a place in this season’s Champions League proper.

After a disappointing performance in Glasgow last week, the tie is finely balanced, and Brendan Rodgers’ side now face a challenge no Celtic team has overcome in three previous attempts: securing a win on Kazakh soil.

The manager has some big decisions to make, particularly regarding the front line, as he looks to guide the team back to European football’s top table for a fourth consecutive season.

This week on Celtic Exchange Weekly, Tino's joined by Paddy, James, and Mif as they go deep on what is a massive week for Celtic.

On and off the pitch, the team faces critical challenges.

First up it's the crucial play off tie against Kairat Almaty which could set the tone for our European ambitions this season, before we then make the trip to Ibrox for the first Glasgow derby of the season - and a chance to go 9 clear of Rangers.

Off the field, the summer transfer window enters its final seven days, and tension is mounting (Re-mounting? 🤔) over whether Celtic will secure the key signings needed to strengthen the squad.

Throw in a European draw on Thursday (Champions League or Europa...) and it makes for a manic week in the world of Celtic - but we wouldn't have it any other way!

Maybe...

🎙️ Join the full squad for this one as the boys bring you the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly.

It was all change at Celtic Park for this one, as Brendan Rodgers made no fewer than eight alterations to his starting line-up following the midweek draw with Kairat Almaty.

With one eye on Tuesday’s return leg in Kazakhstan, Rodgers handed starts to the likes of Dane Murray, Paulo Bernardo, and Shin Yamada, while Hayato Inamura made his first competitive appearance for the club.

The experimental line-up was a gamble - but one that paid off, as the Bhoys ran out 3-0 winners to maintain their perfect start to the league campaign.

Benjamin Nygren claimed Man of the Match thanks to his two-goal contribution, leaving Celtic in good spirits ahead of Tuesday’s clash.

Celtic return to league action tomorrow, and while Brendan Rodgers insists the focus is firmly on the match against Livingston, it’s hard to ignore the possibility of lingering effects from Wednesday night’s disappointing performance against Kairat Almaty.

Adding to the challenge, the manager will be without Alistair Johnston, Adam Idah, and Auston Trusty, while Daizen Maeda is nursing a knock from midweek - but should be available.

Newly promoted Livingston may see this as a chance to cause an upset, but the hope is that those stepping in can help extend Celtic’s perfect start to the league season.

Celtic head in to a tie being billed by some as a £40m extravaganza tomorrow night, and despite the lack of notable signings will be quietly confident of overcoming Kazakh champions Kairat Almaty to reach the Champions League for a fourth successive season.

A strong result at Celtic Park would seem a must given our results historically on Kazakhstan soil and a full house will be there to roar the Bhoys on in this one.

The manager's options may be limited - particularly in the forward areas - but he feels that his side have enough in the locker to take care of business before completing the job in next week's return.

This week on the Celtic Exchange Podcast, Tino, James, and Brydo discuss a crucial early juncture in the campaign as Celtic look to navigate their way back to the Champions League for a fourth successive season.

Despite having no new signings to report, the team keeps proving they can deliver on the pitch in the meantime, with a solid win over Falkirk in the League Cup following on from a perfect start to the league campaign so far.

The Kairat Almaty fixture however is undoubtedly the priority this week, the outcome of which could go on to define the kind of season we have and the onus is now on Callum McGregor and the players who ARE there to show that we once again belong at the top table of European Football.

Elsewhere we take a look at the news of Dane Murray's contract extension and discuss what part the 22 year od may now have to play in the weeks and months ahead.

🎙️ Tune in as we cover all of the above and more in this latest Celtic Exchange Weekly.
