Sead Haksabanovic can’t wait for his first taste of the Tony Macaroni Arena - even though it comes sandwiched in between glamour Champions League clashes with Shakhtar Donetsk and Real Madrid.
The summer signing has been filled in on what to expect from Livingston and their artificial pitch which has historically been a bogey ground for the Hoops. Celtic ended a five-game winless run in West Lothian with a 3-1 victory on their last visit back in March.
Haksabanovic is relishing another new challenge having impressed again in Tuesday’s 1-1 draw with Shakhtar. And he says Ange Postecoglou’s side will treat Livi just like a Champions League encounter as they look to maintain their cushion at the top of the table. He said: “Yes, it is my first visit. My team mates have told me a little about it. And they said it is tough playing there. But, you know, every game is tough in this league and in the Champions League so it is like they say: ‘no easy games’.
