Kick-off on February 26, 2026, at 19:45.

As part of the UEFA Europa League, the second leg of the knockout playoff between Stuttgart and Celtic will take place at the Stuttgart Arena. The first meeting in Glasgow ended with a convincing 4-1 victory for the German side, making the host the clear favorite in the race for a place in the Round of 16 of the tournament. The opponents previously met in Germany at the playoff stage twenty-three years ago, and that match also ended in favor of the home team, 3-2.

Stuttgart has shown a perfect record in home matches on the international stage during the current campaign, successively defeating Celta 2-1, Feyenoord 2-0, Maccabi Tel Aviv 4-1, and Young Boys 3-2. The main architect of the team’s attacking play is Deniz Undav, who has recorded two goals and six assists. Bilal El Khannouss and Jamie Leweling have also made significant contributions to the club’s success. At its home stadium, the German side has remained unbeaten in the Europa League for more than ten years, and this season only the national league leader has managed to secure a victory there.

Celtic has produced mixed results in away fixtures during the league phase, managing a 3-1 victory over Feyenoord while also sharing points with Crvena Zvezda and Bologna. The attacking leaders of the Scottish giant are Benjamin Nygren and Reo Hatate, who together have been involved in ten of the team’s goals in the current campaign. However, the visitor’s record in Germany remains disappointing: in UEFA Cup and Europa League matches, the Glasgow club has frequently suffered defeats against local sides and has rarely scored more than one goal. To produce an upset, the visitor will need to deliver a flawless attacking performance while neutralizing the host’s powerful offense.
