In the case of the local team, the season has started with great disappointment. The Scottish team had to face a tough elimination from the Champions League in its previous rounds. The blue team faced the key against PSV with the illusion of securing their place in the Group Phase. Indeed, the first leg was a brilliant scenario, seeing them leave Scotland with a 2-2 draw. In addition, he left a great image at the level of play and competitiveness. However, the return match was a case study for the worst reasons. Michael Beale’s team were thrashed 5-1 and had to settle for a place in the Europa League. At the league level, the course did not start so well either, as they began by losing one of their three initial games.
The outlook for Brendan Rodgers’ team is somewhat different. The Verdiblancos began the season with two wins and a draw in the Scottish league. In addition, one of those victories came against Aberdeen, one of the most powerful teams in the entire rental. Even the outlook in Europe is much more encouraging. The current Scottish champion qualified directly for the Champions League and already knows his group. They will have to share the zone with Feyenoord, Lazio and Atlético de Madrid. A very complex group, but one that will mean a great economic income for the institution.
