The full UEFA Champions League group stage line-up is almost known, with Celtic soon to find out their fate.
Three sides booked their place at the top table of European club football on Tuesday night with three more to be confirmed on Wednesday.
Galatasaray saw off a spirited challenge from Norwegian league winners Molde to book their spot in the Champions League group stage for the first time since 2019.
Young Boys and Braga were the night’s other winners, seeing off Maccabi Haifa and Panathinaikos respectively.
On Wednesday one of AEK Athens/Antwerp, Copenhagen/Rakow and PSV/Rangers will complete the 32-team line-up.
The Tuesday winners are all ranked higher than Celtic in the UEFA coefficient rankings, meaning that we are now guaranteed to be in pot four for Thursday’s draw in Monaco.

That means that we will face one team from each of the other pots. We already know 22 of those potential and there are unsurprisingly some tasty names included.
Pot 1: Manchester City, Sevilla, Barcelona, Napoli, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, Benfica, Feyenoord
Pot 2: Real Madrid, Manchester United, Inter Milan, Borussia Dortmund, Atletico Madrid, RB Leipzig, Porto, Arsenal
Pot 3: Shakhtar Donetsk, Red Bull Salzburg, AC Milan, Braga, Lazio, Red Star Belgrade (+ 2 more)
The winner of PSV vs Rangers will also be in pot three although, if it is the Ibrox side, we will be unable to draw them due to UEFA keeping teams from the same country apart.
Copenhagen will also be added to pot three if they finish the job against Polish champions Rakow. If they fail, then it will be Young Boys who become an option for us.
