Two clubs chasing UEFA Europa League glory will do battle today in a match between Celtic and Dinamo Zagreb. The group-stage match scheduled for 3 p.m. ET will be held at Celtic Park in Glasgow and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on Fox Sports 2.
Celtic manager Ronny Deila had this to offer ahead of today's European encounter (via the Express): "If Celtic or Scotland are not ready for that [my fitness standards], then I will go back to Norway. It's no problem. I'm here to do something, I want to make something here. If you don't do it, then okay. I tried. But I really believe the players are enjoying it and they want to adapt to it. I am satisfied with their attitude."
"Look at Norway," he added. "You don't find the solution there to get to the Champions League. And if you see the fitness in the Champions League, it's unbelievable. Celtic is a big club. We want to go out there. If we want to do that, then we have to look outside the country, not inside."
