Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola makes nine changes for his side's meeting with Celtic.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has made nine changes to his starting XI for this evening's Champions League showdown with Celtic.

Ilkay Gundogan and Leroy Sane are the only survivors from last weekend's 3-1 defeat to Chelsea in the Premier League.

Guardiola has handed starts to youth players Tosin Adarabioyo and Phil Foden, who lines up in midfielder alongside Pablo Zabaleta in a holding role.

Bacary Sagna will play in central defence, while Nolito partners Kelechi Iheanacho in the attack.

Celtic, who are already eliminated from European competition, have made one change from the side that saw off Motherwell at the weekend, with Erik Sviatchenko preferred to Kolo Toure.

Manchester City: Caballero; Maffeo, Sagna, Adarabioyo, Clichy; Fernando, Zabaleta, Sane, Gundogan, Nolito; Iheanacho
Subs: Gunn, Foden, Stones, Aguero, Otamendi, Navas, Angelino

Celtic: Gordon; Lustig, Simunovic, Sviatchenko, Izaguirre; Brown, Rogic, Armstrong, Roberts, Forest; Dembele
Subs: De Vries, Toure, Bitton, Griffiths, Gamboa, Mackay-Steven, McGregor
