Yom Kippur may rule Celtic winger Liel Abada out of RB Leipzig Champions League tie

CELTIC may be without winger Liel Abada for their Champions League group stage tie against RB Leipzig due to the timing of Yom Kippur.

Both Abada and Nir Bitton missed last season’s Europa League match against Real Betis in Seville because they were observing the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, which starts this evening and ends at sunset on Wednesday night.

It is understood that Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou will leave it up to his player to decide whether or not he wishes to travel with the team from Glasgow to Germany later today.
