Celtic in Europa League seeding boost as Neil Lennon's men to avoid Arsenal and Spurs

Celtic will be seeded in pot 1 for Friday's Europa League draw after their 1-0 win over Sarajevo.

Odsonne Edouard fired the Hoops through to the group stage with a second half winner against the Bosnian side.

And that priceless strike means Celtic will enter the hat as a top seed alongside the competition's big guns after Copenhagen, Basel, Sporting and Wolfsburg were all knocked out.

This comes as a huge boost as they'll avoid the likes of Arsenal and Spurs in their group.

Rangers will be in pot 3 after their 2-1 win over Galatasaray thanks to goals from Scott Arfield and James Tavernier.
