Celtic will look to overturn their shock loss in their first leg tie against Lincoln Red Imps on Wednesday night.
The Gibraltar side frustrated Brendan Rodgers’ side in his first game in charge of Celtic and capitalised on poor defending from the Scottish champions.
Rodgers will be looking for his side to make a statement and put last Tuesday’s shock loss firmly behind them.
The winner of the two-legged tie will face Lithuanian side Zalgiris Vilnius or Astana from Kazakhstan in the next round.
Celtic
Erik Sviatchenko is fit to play despite sustaining a head injury against Wolfsburg that forced him off the field of play, but Kieran Tierney is a slight doubt through illness.
Stefan Johansen and Dedryck Boyata missed the first leg and will also miss Wednesday’s game as they recover from an ankle and hamstring injury respectively while Nir Bitton will also miss out with a hip injury.
Back-up goalkeeper Logan Bailly is out for a few months after breaking his ankle.
Kris Commons and Gary Mackay-Steven remain out as their recover from respective operations during the offseason.
Jozo Simunovic is still recovering from knee surgery that he underwent in March and should be fit by the end of next month if there are no further setbacks.
Lincoln Red Imps
