The Welsh striker has fond memories of Celtic's victory at Anfield in the UEFA Cup last season and is looking forward to meeting the Finnish defender again.

"I don't know whether that will give me any psychological advantage but make no mistake, he's a top-class player," admitted Hartson.

"He's playing for Liverpool where he's a rock at the heart of their defence and he's no different for Finland.

"It just goes to show what a great result it was for us out in Helsinki, which set us on our way in this campaign."
