Red Star Belgrade manager Vladan Milojević has named his starting XI for this evening’s Europa League opener against Celtic. The Serbian league leaders host Brendan Rodgers’ side in Belgrade at the iconic Rajko Mitić Stadium.
Former West Ham and Stoke attacker Marko Arnautović will lead the line for Belgrade. The 36-year-old has Premier League pedigree and will be the one to watch from the hosts.
Matheus, Ivanić, Veljković, Duarte, Händel, Elšnik, Tiknizyan, Uchenna, Radonjić, Seol, Arnautović.
Subs: Glazer, Guteša, Bajo, Milson, Katai, Olayinka, Kostov, Stanković, Leković, Lučić, Zarić, Avdić.
Elsewhere, Brendan Rodgers has made two changes from the side that beat Partick Thistle with Kasper Schmeichel and Daizen Maeda coming in for Vil Sinisalo and Kelechi Iheanacho, who drop to the bench.
Celtic: Schmeichel, Donovan, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Tierney, McGregor, Hatate, Nygren, Yang, Maeda, Tounekti.
Subs: Sinisalo, Doohan, Balikwisha, McCowan, Iheanacho, Kenny, Engels, Bernardo, Saracchi, Murray, Forrest, Ralston.
Nygren a big mistake, he has looked inept in Europe so far against a team ranked 311. We were better with Engels when he came on against Kairat. Nygren has on looked good against botton of the league teams or first division outfits!
