Meanwhile...
32'
Alarm bells are surely ringing now for the Scottish champions. Celtic started really well but have gone off the boil in the last 15 minutes and are very fortunate they aren't trailing.

ENACHE! Mulgrew gives the ball away cheaply in midfield and FC Astra's Enache almost punishes the hosts but his shot just curls wide of the goal.

JUST WIDE! A neat team move which began from a throw-in should have resulted in the opener for the visitors but Seto's effort somehow went wide of the post. Should have scored.

ANOTHER SAVE! Gordon saves with his feet this time to deny Astra once again! You can use your hands, you know, Craig? Celtic are living dangerously at the moment.

BIZARRE SAVE! Gordon stops Yahaya's thumping effort from all of 25 yards with his chest! Great stop!
19'
Celtic have dealt with the delivery well. Almost 20 minutes gone and it's still scoreless here at Celtic Park but the hosts will be the happier of the two sides at this stage.
18'
Astra have won only their third corner of the group stage.
16'
Leaders Red Bull Salzburg have just taken the lead in the other game in Group D Dinamo Zagreb.

FC Astra show their first glimpse of danger as a neat counter-attacking move concludes when Pliatsikas strikes wide from a narrow angle.
13'
Van Dijk's effort is low and hard but is blocked by the wall.
12'
Stokes is fouled and Celtic have a free-kick just outside the opposition's penalty area.
11'
The delivery is poor and FC Astra clear. Still 0-0 with over 10 minutes played but Celtic are certainly in control.
10'
But a determined Celtic win yet another corner which Johansen looks set to take.
9'
Stokes' delivery is cleared at the front post.
