The Eredivisie giants have an average squad age of 23.75 years in comparison to 26.2 for the Scottish Premiership champions.
Defiant Quinten Timber reckons Feyenoord's Champions League inexperience won't hinder their chances of progressing beyond the group stage despite admitting they have "no control" over their rookie status.
However, Timber is far from concerned by Feyenoord's young squad despite suggestions that it could give Celtic the upper hand. Brendan Rodgers' side have a plethora of stars who were at the club for the Champions League journey under Ange Postecoglou last season, whereas tonight's hosts were plying their trade in the Europa League and experienced a huge summer squad overhaul. The average age of the players available to manager Arne Slot is around 24 compared to 26 for the Celts.
Timber gets goosebumps at the idea that he will make his first Champions League bow against Celtic as Jurriën has already told him about the "special feeling" to expect.
