Hector Bellerin in Celtic 'pressure' claim as Real Betis defender reveals Rangers defeat takeaways

Real Betis star Hector Bellerin says Celtic’ s loss to Rangers has put them under pressure before the Europa League clash.

The Arsenal full-back, who is on loan at the Spanish club, can’t wait to face the Hoops on Thursday in their opening Group G tie.

Bellerin has revealed that Betis’ players have been shown clips of Celtic’s 1-0 loss at Ibrox in the build-up.

And the 26-year-old insists the derby damage inflicted on Ange Postecoglou ’s side means they’ll be feeling the heat when they arrive in Seville.

Bellerin said: “To play against Celtic will be special because they’re such a big club with a big history.

“Celtic will be a tough rival but I’m optimistic. At Betis, we’re obliged to get the three points.

“We have already watched the derby against Rangers and that result puts pressure on Celtic.

“If we can dominate the ball against them, we can get the win we need. I’ve left Arsenal to win things with Real Betis. I’m not here for a holiday.”
