We said: Manchester City 2-2 Celtic

Fatigue should not come into play too much for Celtic on Tuesday, as Rodgers unsurprisingly rotated his resources heavily for the weekend's success and can call upon a few more first-team regulars than his opposite number Guardiola. As the Bhoys have already developed a taste for goals in pre-season, a youthful City defence should come under siege, but Haaland and co can fight fire with fire in an entertaining draw. Read more.
