Celtic are in 2020/21 Champions League action before the 2019/20 tournament has even ended - such are the vagaries of the football calendar in these strange and turbulent times.
But the good news is that it 'should' be a routine assignment.
Aberdeen legend Jim Bett lives in Iceland, has watched opponents KR Reykjavik first hand and believes Neil Lennon's men could run up a handsome goals tally.
He told the Daily Record in a special interview : "They will beat Reykjavik quite comfortably and I can see them scoring a few goals.
"They played last Friday night and lost at home 2-1 but it was their first game in two weeks so it wasn’t ideal preparation for their trip to Glasgow.
"They’ll be short of match fitness too. I know Celtic are just two games into their own season but they will be at a far higher level in terms of fitness."
Bookies thepools.com make Celtic massively odds on 1/14 to win the one-off tie at Celtic Park.
But Celtic to win to nil is a more appealing 4/9 while if Bett is correct and Celtic do cut loose then Celtic by 4+ goals is 13/10 .
Odsonne Edouard scored a hat-trick in Celtic's last Parkhead outing and is 5/1 to repeat that feat and 21/10 to score first .
But if you're looking for better value Ryan Christie, who scored last time out, is 7/2 first goal and James Forrest 11/2 . Newcomers to thepools.com can use their Free £2 bet on that tip and bank more than a tenner if it comes in.
