Episode Can Celtic Change the Narrative in Lisbon as Hearts open their campaign?
Can Celtic produce a result in Lisbon that changes the mood around the club? Craig Telfer is joined by former Hearts defender Ryan McGowan to preview a huge night of European football. The pair discuss the ongoing debate surrounding Celtic's direction, Martin O'Neill's position, and whether a positive result against Benfica could ease tensions around Parkhead. They also assess Celtic's tactical options, the form of Kasper Høgh and the challenge posed by one of Portugal's strongest sides. Attention then turns to Tynecastle, where Hearts begin their Conference League campaign against Danish outfit Nordsjælland. Ryan explains why the visitors may be tougher opponents than many expect, discusses Hearts' impressive progress under Wouter Vrancken, and reflects on the unique atmosphere European nights can generate in Gorgie.
