Celtic manager Neil Lennon has described being drawn against Juventus in the second round of the Champions League as a "beauty".
The SPL side qualified for the knockout stages of the competition after finishing second in a group including Barcelona and Benfica and although Lennon was excited at being drawn against the Serie A leaders, he quickly acknowledged that it would be a tough match.
Lennon told Sky Sports News: "In terms of glamour it's a beauty. Juventus are one of the great traditional European teams. In terms of qualification it's going to be very, very tough. They're current Italian champions and finished their group very strongly.
"We will take it as it comes, we're looking forward to the games now and I'm sure our supporters will be as well. We believe over two games that anything is possible.
"Juventus's team are littered with world class stars and they've been very consistent over the last 18 months and they've got a great winning mentality - but so have we."
Celtic will host the first leg of the two-legged tie on February 12 before they travel to Turin on March 6.
