Statistical Review: Celtic 1-1 Club Brugge

Celtic has remained undefeated across their last three Champions League fixtures. Their previous unbeaten sequence of comparable length spanned from December 10, 2008, to October 2, 2012. At Celtic Park, Celtic has maintained an unbeaten record in their last five Champions League home encounters, registering three victories and two draws. This follows a period where they had suffered eight defeats in their previous nine home games in the competition, alongside one draw. Andreas Skov Olsen recorded four shots during the match, a figure that equals the highest total for any Club Brugge player in a Champions League fixture. Daizen Maeda of Celtic netted his third Champions League goal of the current season. This tally matches the highest number of goals scored by a Japanese player in a single campaign, previously achieved by Daichi Kamada in 2022-23 and Shinji Kagawa in 2016-17. Furthermore, Maeda’s three goals represent a shared record for the most goals scored by a Celtic player in a single Champions League campaign, a feat last accomplished by Moussa Dembele for the club in 2016-17. Cameron Carter-Vickers registered an own goal, marking the first instance of a Celtic player doing so in the Champions League since Jozo Simunovic against Anderlecht in December 2017. Christos Tzolis generated four scoring opportunities, a total that equals the highest on record (since the 2003-04 season) for a Club Brugge player in a Champions League away fixture. Carter-Vickers executed 148 passes during the game, establishing the highest total for any player in the Champions League.
