U21 preview | Wolves vs Celtic B

Wolves under-21s close out their Premier League International Cup campaign by welcoming Celtic B to Aggborough on Tuesday evening.

Please note, due to Premier League broadcasting restrictions, Tuesday’s Premier League International Cup fixture with Celtic B will not be live streamed.

The old gold will be looking to bow out on a high, having already been eliminated from the competition after three defeats.

Porto, Valencia and Wolfsburg have all been narrow victors over James Collins’ side, which has featured several younger players from within the academy.

Their Scottish opponents still have three fixtures to complete after losing 4-2 to Fulham back in October, so qualification through to the next round remains a possibility.

When it comes to their domestic league, Celtic B currently sit fourth in the Scottish Lowland Football League, only three points behind Rangers B who lead the way.

Wolves got off to a winning start in 2023, scoring four at Sunderland to confirm progression in the Premier League Cup.

However, back-to-back defeats have since followed in Premier League 2, with both Blackburn Rovers and Chelsea taking the points and leaving the old gold eager for that winning feeling once again.
