Ryan Jack joins Si Ferry, Slaney and Andy Halliday to review a big week of European Football for Scottish Clubs as Celtic have one foot in the Champions League after an impressive 3-0 win over LASK with Rangers still having work to do following their 1-0 win over Jablonec at Ibrox after they went down to 10-men due to Cammy Devlin's red card.We also discuss a massive away result for Hibs as they kept a clean sheet over in Belgium against Gent to take back a 0-0 draw to Easter Road while their rivals Hearts were so close to a 1st leg victory over Rapid Vienna after a James Wilson wonder strike but a late equaliser saw the game finish 2-2 at Tynecastle.The lads chat about Motherwell's valiant effort against last season's Europa League Finalists, Freiburg and also look ahead to the first Dundee Derby of the season at Tannadice! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Celtic beat LASK 3-0 at Celtic Park to take a commanding lead into the Champions League play-off second leg in Linz — but what does the data actually say? On this Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, Martin, Alan and James dig into a 3-0 win built on three world-class finishes from just 0.89 xG, a lost packing battle, and a midfield that was repeatedly wide open in transition. Alan explains why Callum McGregor was packed 31 times — a figure he's only matched against Bayern, Dortmund, Real Madrid and Milan — while James lays out the "jailbreak" problem behind the scoreline and asks whether Mika Baur and McGregor can play together. Plus: Camilo Duran's double and whether he's really a right winger, Benjamin Nygren's vindication after a season of abuse, Kasper Høgh's role debate, Viljami Sinisalo's first big save, Colby Donovan's breakout, and why Haissem Hassan's eight minutes were the most exciting of the night. The guys also look ahead to the return leg at the Raiffeisen Arena, the latest Celtic transfer links, and how Rangers, Hearts, Hibs and Motherwell fared in Europe.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?

Celtic went to Rugby Park and produced their highest expected-goals difference away at Kilmarnock since records began — a 5-1 win that Alan calls the most enjoyable watch in a long time. In this episode, Alan and James dig into the numbers behind the rout: why Arne Engels dominated the middle of the pitch in a way we simply haven't seen from him, how Kasper Høgh recorded the highest packing-receive score on the pitch while operating far deeper than his Bodø/Glimt role, and why the Høgh–Duran–Nygren interplay looks like a genuine attacking connection rather than three individuals. They also assess a back four of Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Trusty and Tierney that Alan rates as Europa League-good, before James pumps the brakes: two games running, Celtic's counter-press has been passive, the buildup has creaked against ordinary opposition, and that might be a personnel problem rather than a game-state one. Plus a full breakdown of incoming Egyptian winger Hassan from Real Oviedo — elite athletically, with progressive-carry and acceleration numbers benchmarked alongside Mbappé, Yamal and Nico Williams, but with real questions over decision-making and defensive work — and the tactical puzzle of fitting Duran, Høgh and Hassan into one front three without Daizen Maeda's out-of-possession engine. Then a trip round a Scottish Premiership on fire: Derek McInnes “sacked” at Rangers, Hearts' 4-0 over Dundee United, Hibs' front-line depth, and Motherwell's struggles without Just.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?

James runs the numbers on Hassan's 99th-percentile dribbling, his crossing and his decision-making, benchmarks Mika Baur alongside Callum McGregor, and lays out why Celtic's build-up problem is systemic rather than personal.
