Celtic boss wants full house for Europa League game

Tony Mowbray has urged Celtic fans to fill Parkhead and not let Rapid Vienna's travelling support dominate as they did in their defeat of Aston Villa at a half full Villa Park. The Hoops still have unsold tickets for the Europa League group C match that is being screened live on terrestrial television.

"The support that Rapid carried was amazing," Mowbray said. "That will be an issue here, too. Villa Park was half-empty and their team's performance reflected that.

"I do not want to tell the fans what to do but I hope they recognise that Rapid will come with a very noisy support. I hope that we will do something out on the pitch to keep their fans quiet and make ours very vocal."
