The departure for Glasgow

One day before the game, Club Brugge travels to Scotland. Even before leaving Ostend, the players and staff have breakfast at Basecamp. At noon Belgian time, the wheels are off the ground in Ostend for a flight of about an hour and a half. Once arrived in Scotland, we turn back the clock one hour.

After some rest in their rooms, the players get ready to go down to Celtic Park for the first time. At 5:45 p.m. local time (6:45 p.m. Belgian time), Nicky Hayen and Brandon Mechele will address the press before putting on their boots at 6:30 p.m. local time (7:30 p.m. Belgian time) for a final training session on Scottish soil.

The press conference can be followed live on Facebook & YouTube.
