We do like to analyse the opposition as it informs our perspective about Celtic’s player and team performances.
For each match, I collect copious player event data for every Celtic player, but also a cut down version for each opponent.
From that, we can discern the most noteworthy performances against Celtic, with a thought towards future recruitment opportunities, were there anyone around to get deals over the line.
I will consider domestic and European performances separately; such is the gulf in standard between those arenas.
