Aalborg stand-in boss Allan Kuhn has warned Celtic to expect a tough test when they meet in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, live on Sky Sports 2.

The Hoops have recorded success in their last 11 SPL games as they continue their quest for a fourth straight title.

The Parkhead side's form away from home in the Champions League, however, is less poor, having mustered just one out of a possible 51 points away from Glasgow in the group stages of the competition.

Kuhn had Celtic watched in their 3-1 win over St Mirren at Love Street on Saturday and he feels he has identified a chink the the team's armour.

Difficult

"St Mirren were the better team in the first half but Celtic were better in the second half," he said.

"But it was a Scottish game and Celtic are nearly always the winner there, except when they meet Rangers.

"They have more national players but I don't think they are a better team than us.

"Celtic will always get results in Scotland but it will be a difficult match for them against us in the Champions League.

"We are at home and in the last five years we have lost two European matches here to Getafe and Manchester United.

Strong

"So we are a strong team at home in European competition.

"It is difficult to talk about weaknesses in a team but one thing I have noticed about Celtic is that they concede goals.

"It is not every game that they keep a clean sheet.

"So I'm sure we can score goals against them and that will be important because we have to win the match."
