Celtic CELCeltic manager Martin O'Neill expects the full contingent of his World Cup players to be in training next week before the new Scottish Premiership season kicks-off. Scotland left-back Kieran Tierney and Tunisia winger Sebastian Tounekti both started in Saturday's 2-2 friendly draw with AC Milan.
Dundee United 25-year-old Will Ferry is on a list of potential left-back options Celtic manager Martin O'Neill is considering. Celtic are in talks with AEK Athens' former Hearts left-back, James Penrice, with the 27-year-old open to a return to Scotland even though he would be back-up to Kieran Tierney. James Penrice's representatives say Rangers are not interested in the AEK Athens right-back but there is a small window of opportunity for Celtic to sign the Scot.

For Scotland, this is a moment of truth. After a vital opening win against Haiti was followed by a narrow loss to Morocco, their path to the knockout stage hangs in the balance. The Tartan Army knows that a positive result here would almost certainly see them through, but facing the tournament favorites is a monumental task. Brazil enters this clash with a clear objective: win and secure the top spot in the group. After a wakeup call in their 1-1 draw with Morocco, the Seleção responded with a dominant 3-0 victory over Haiti. Now, Carlo Ancelotti‘s side is looking to make a statement and ensure a more favorable draw in the round of 32, creating a high-pressure finale for both nations. Tactical Analysis & Match Context Brazil‘s tournament trajectory shows a team finding its rhythm. The initial draw served as a warning, but their subsequent performance demonstrated their offensive firepower. In contrast, Scotland‘s journey has been a rollercoaster. They secured the necessary points against the group’s underdog but were unable to hold off a disciplined Moroccan side, placing immense pressure on this final fixture. This match projects as a classic clash of styles: Brazil‘s fluid, possession-based attack against Scotland‘s compact, defensive block. Scotland’s deep-sitting defense, indicated by their high passes per defensive action (PPDA) average, aims to frustrate opponents and limit space. Brazil, however, boasts the fifth-most dangerous attack in the competition, averaging a high expected goals (xG) per shot, meaning they create quality chances and will relentlessly test Scotland‘s resolve. The motivations are crystal clear. For Brazil, topping the group is crucial to avoid a potential heavyweight clash in the next round. For Scotland, survival is the only goal. A draw would likely guarantee their advancement, and even a narrow defeat could see them progress as one of the best third-placed teams. This dynamic will dictate a cautious, disciplined approach from Scotland, while Brazil will be tasked with breaking them down. Head-to-Head Record & Historic Trends History heavily favors the South American giants in this fixture. Brazil and Scotland have met four times in previous tournaments, with the Seleção remaining undefeated, securing three wins and one draw. Scotland has never managed to defeat Brazil in an official competitive match. The last four tournament encounters tell a story of Brazilian dominance. Their most recent clash was a 2-1 Brazil victory in the 1998 group stage. Prior to that, Brazil won 1-0 in 1990 and 4-1 in 1982, with the only shared point coming from a 0-0 draw in 1974. A 2011 friendly also ended in a 2-0 win for Brazil. Statistically, the trends are stark. Brazil has an impressive record against European opposition, with 44 wins, 17 draws, and only 16 losses in 77 matches at the tournament. Conversely, Scotland has struggled against CONMEBOL teams, having never won a single match against South American opponents in the competition’s history (two draws, six losses). Squad News & Projected Lineups Both teams are managing key player availability heading into this decisive group stage finale. For Scotland, the primary concern is the fitness of defender Kieran Tierney, who suffered a muscle injury against Morocco. His potential absence would be a significant blow to their defensive structure, likely forcing manager Steve Clarke to adjust his backl
Just over a year ago, Celtic launched their season ticket campaign for the 2025-26 season under the tagline 'Back For The Future'. It was a clever nod to the return of familiar faces, with manager Brendan Rodgers joined by fan favourites Kieran Tierney and Jota, all embarking on second spells at the club. Because the real Back To The Future story arrived this week, with confirmation Martin O'Neill will return for at least one more season at the helm - this time as permanent manager.
