Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic side for the Champions League test against Club Brugge in Glasgow.

The Scottish champions are hoping that a noisy Celtic Park can be the place for another memorable European night on what has been an an exciting League Phase campaign so far.

Celtic have enjoyed statement wins over Slovan Bratislava and RB Leipzig at home, and battled to a creditable 0-0 draw with Atalanta in Bergamo, with the only black spot on their record being a 7-1 defeat in Dortmund.

Rodgers and his players know that a win over Brugge would be a major step towards reaching the knockout stage of the competition and the manager has named another attacking line-up as they aim for three valuable points.

Kasper Schmeichel is in goal behind a back four of Greg Taylor, Auston Trusty, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Alistair Johnston.

Captain Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate and Arne Engels form a midfield trio, while Kyogo Furuhashi starts in attack with Daizen Maeda and Nicolas Kuhn either side.
