Celtic had a night to forget in the continent as they kicked off their UEFA Champions League camaign on a sour note against Feyenoord. Brendan Rodgers will have to get his players focused on the task ahead to get them back to winning ways in their quest to defend their league title.
Meanwhile, Livingston's start to the season has been relatively impressive, and the Lions have been something of a boogey team for the Scottish champions in recent years. That, coupled with Celtic's recent struggles, could give them the belief that they could get something here.
