The La Liga giants are heavy favourites going into tomorrow’s clash.

However, Sutton has said, as per the Daily Record: “Celtic build from the back, they take risks. It’s the same approach as Pep Guardiola and Manchester City.

“Obviously, Guardiola has a higher standard of player at his disposal, but this young team of Postecoglou’s are having great success with it and I fully believe they can give Real Madrid a bloody nose by going at it in this manner.

“I’ve got to say, this Celtic team under Postecoglou are a great watch. They are so fast and fluid and some of the football is a joy.”
