Celtic's European route under scrutiny after Dundee display

According to BBC Sport, the question of which Scottish club faces the toughest route to the European group stage has put Celtic's readiness under the spotlight. The win in their latest match eased immediate pressure, but the performance did not fully convince.

Celtic got the result, yet doubts remain about their capacity to cope with the higher tempo and quality of European opposition. The victory was functional, but the overall display suggests there is work to be done before the group stage.

Dundee, meanwhile, emerged from defeat with credit. Their performance offered signs of promise and suggests they may be able to compete with the top sides in Scotland, even if the final result went against them.

BBC Sport's assessment leaves Celtic with much to ponder as they look ahead to their European fixtures, while Dundee can take encouragement from their display. Readers can find related match highlights on this site.
