Preview: Ajax vs. Celtic

Sports Mole previews Wednesday's encounter between Ajax and Celtic in Group H of the Champions League.

Celtic travel to Ajax in Group H of the Champions League on Wednesday with both teams in need of a win.

Ajax currently prop up the standings with one point from three games, while Celtic are two points off second-placed AC Milan after a 2-1 victory over the Dutch champions two weeks ago.

The visitors come into the match on an unbeaten run of five matches, but the home side have been in indifferent form as of late.

Ajax could have Bojan Krkic and Nikolas Moisander back in their squad following spells on the sidelines for both players.

Scott Brown and Nir Biton miss out through suspension for Celtic, who are also without Adam Matthews. However, Kris Commons is expected to return for the Hoops.
