Celtic are ahead at Pittodrie thanks to a first goal from Benji Nygren. Kieran Tierney supplied his first competitive assist since returning from Arsenal with a trademark burst of pace down towards the touchline before firing a cross into the path of the Swedish midfielder.
Nygren arrived in the box and deposited a cool finish beyond Mitov, who managed to get a hand to it.

Celtic have been composed without being ruthless in attack. Brendan will be hoping that his side can add some more goals this afternoon and lay down a marker.
