Celtic have this evening confirmed that the club have been handed an allocation of 1,848 for the Hoops’ final away Champions League clash against Real Madrid.

Ange Postecoglou and his squad earned their first taste of top-level European action under the 57-year-old this season after being drawn in Group F.

Following the conclusion of the first four games, the Bhoys currently sit bottom of the group on one point, with their closest rivals Shakhtar Donetsk on five points.

Despite not picking up a victory in the competition as of yet, Celtic have deserved much more from their matchups against Shakhtar, RB Leipzig and Real Madrid.

Ange Postecoglou has been left proud by his players displays. But, at the same time, frustrated by the lack of clinical edge in front of goal.

Whilst we have already exited the Champions League, there is still an outside chance of Europa League qualification in the final two games.

However, those chances seem extremely slim, with Postecoglou and his squad needing to go and earn a result at the home of the current European champions.

Of course, first, the Hoops would also need to pick up their first three points against the Ukrainian side at Celtic Park, a week on Tuesday.

Nevertheless, no matter the outcome of that game and Celtic’s European knockout hopes, you can guarantee there will be plenty of Celtic supporters heading for Madrid the following week to cheer on the Hoops.

Under 2,000 Celtic supporters set for Bernabeu visit, as Madrid brace for Bhoys takeover.

As we have seen from the Parkhead faithful’s trips to Poland and Germany already this season, the Spanish capital will be bracing for a green and white takeover as the Celtic support comes to town.

This evening, it was confirmed how many supporters would be inside the famous Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday, 2nd November, with an allocation of 1,848 handed to the club.

Those who meet the current criteria are able to purchase tickets for the game now, as Ange Postecoglou’s side plays their final group stage match of this campaign.

Tickets are priced at £35 or £48, with the current deadline for those eligible to purchase tickets being 2 PM on Friday, 21st October.

It is bound to be a glamorous occasion as the current Champions League holders host the club from the East End of Glasgow.

And you can already guarantee that the Celtic boss will set his side up ready to challenge Carlo Ancelotti’s incredible team, filled with superstar names.

For those lucky enough to get a ticket, it should prove to be a fantastic night in one of the world’s most famous sporting venues.

But there are bound to be plenty more supporters heading to Madrid to cheer on the Bhoys as we round out our European group stage campaign at the beginning of next month.
