FC Copenhagen boss Stale Solbakken reckons his side have a 50/50 chance of making it past Celtic in the Europa League.
The two sides meet in the round of 32 after they were drawn together in this afternoon's draw in Nyon.
Solbakken, 51, has managed the club against the Hoops previously back in 2006 when Gordon Strachan's men qualified for the last-16 of the Champions League.

This time, though, the boss believes his players will not fear the cauldron of Parkhead and they have a decent chance of knocking Celts out of the competition.
"I think it was a fine draw for us, and we have a fair chance of going to the round of 16," he told the club's official website.
"It's an attractive team for our fans, and we had some good fights against them in 2006.
"I regard our chances as 50/50, so it is a fine opponent for us."
