CELTIC have sold out Parkhead for the Europa League clash with Inter Milan and let's hope fans are not disappointed when Shaqiri and not Shakira strolls on to the turf.
And hopefully the tips won't lie as I expect a match with both scoring and ultimately Inter qualifying for the last 16.
The Italians may sit 10th in Serie A but there is no doubt their squad is packed with quality with players costing five more than the Glasgow side's.
Inter boss Roberto Mancini is beginning to make his mark at the San Siro and the capture of Xherdan Shaqiri from Bayern Munich last month was inspired.
Mancini's men have quality all over the park – even if there is no room for fellow new boy Lukas Podolski in their Euro squad and they are rightly favourites at 2-5 with Skybet to qualify with Celtic 11-4 at William Hill.
To win tonight the Italians are 6-4 with bet365 but of course would be happy with a draw. Celtic are 21-10 at Ladbrokes and a stalemate pays 5-2 with boylesports.
Deila likes to attack and Inter will love to hit on the counter so both to score looks a good shout at 11-13 at 888sport while over 2.5 goals pays 11-10 at Paddy Power.
Birthday boy Mauro Icardi, 22 today, is 11-2 favourite at Betfred to score first while dangerman and penalty taker Shaqiri is 9-1 at McBookie I'm on Shaqiri to net at 31-10 with McBookie.
Stefan Johansen has scored in both of Celtic's last two home Europa League matches and is 16-5 at Hills to net again.
This is of course a repeat of the 1967 European Cup Final which Celtic won 2-1 and that scoreline pays 21-2 at McBookie.
Celtic haven't lost to Inter in their three previous meetings and draw no bet pays 11-10 at William Hill.

I have to say Mr F, those first two lines are inspired. Wish I had thought of them.
Fitba Tips, I’m more a Motorhead man but Shakira’s better to look at than Lemmy.
‘Shakira…….’tips don’t lie’
Best play on words this site has yet seen!
Ad, and I’ve got it in a Daily Record headline in today’s paper – tips better be right then. Goodnight all.
I like the look of Tottenham to beat fiorentina at white heart lane…And thats the most appealing to my eyes
Do you bet 0-0 or no goal scorer
Can someone explain what is better and why?
Thank you
@ Brianc84
On a ‘no goal scorer’ wager own goals don’t count – this makes it marginally safer than a ‘0-0’ bet
Brianc84, always do no scorer – then you get the benefit of an own goal.
I’ll be on johansen first goal 12/1 at hills
Thank you
Big Will he’s still 5/1 anytime with Ladbrokes so that’s alot better value than 12/1 1st, hope he does it tonight :)
