Celtic begin their 2015/16 Champions League campaign at home to Icelandic side Stjarnan on Wednesday evening.

The return leg takes place on Wednesday July 22 and will be live on BT Sport.

Ronny Deila's side comfortably defeated KR Reykjavik at the same stage 12 months ago and are strong favourites to progress to qualifying round three.

Stjarnan are sixth in the table after playing 11 games and trail leaders FH Hafnarfjordur by nine points after losing 2-1 at home to Valur on Friday evening.

Celtic go into the match on the back of three pre-season friendlies at St Mirren Park, where they beat Den Bosch 2-0 and Real Sociedad 1-0 either side of a 5-3 defeat to Dukla Prague.
