UEFA confident on Celtic clash

UEFA are now confident that Celtic and their supporters will get the go-ahead to travel to Milan for next month’s Champions League crunch match. The Scottish champions are due to face AC Milan at the San Siro stadium on March 7, a fixture which at one stage looked set to be moved out of Italy.

The death of a police officer at the Sicilian derby between Catania and Palermo on February 2 prompted the Italian government to demand an improvement in facilities at Italian football stadia.
