Bayern will give 'fortress' Celtic Park 'respect it deserves' - Kompany

Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany says there is no risk of complacency when the Bundesliga leaders take on Celtic in Glasgow on Wednesday.

The sides face off in the first leg of their Champions League play-off before the return leg in Munich next week.

Six-time champions Bayern are eight points clear in their domestic league and have won their past four outings in all competitions.

Despite that recent run, Kompany is wary coming to "fortress" Celtic Park.

"Both clubs stand very high in the tradition of the Champions League because of the achievements of the past," Kompany said.

"For myself, and I imagine it's the same for Brendan, we're all here for the next piece of history.

"Anyone that has a deeper understanding of football would understand the home record of Celtic in this competition. It's not just recent. Throughout my career, I don't remember Celtic losing at home in Europe. It is a fortress. We give it the respect it deserves.

"We also have a team geared to look forward to big games. There's nobody from our side that will treat this any different to any other top game."
