52 min: AC Milan 1-0 Feyenoord (agg: 1-1) Milan have been on top all night at San Siro – but Theo Hernandez has just been given a second yellow card for diving so they are down to 10 men. Feyenoord have a great chance to reach the last 16 of the Champions League for the first time since – yikes – 1999-2000. Any excuse to post this outrageous goal from Seba Veron. (Also: the arthritic goalkeeping for Jon Dahl Tomasson’s equaliser is like something out of Father Ted.).
Harry Kane, who injured his face against Leverkusen in the big Bundesliga game at the weekend, is fit to start. That means there are three changes from the Bayern XI in the first leg: Kim Min-jae, Josip Stanisic and Serge Gnabry replace Eric Dier, Konrad Laimer and Leroy Sane. Brendan Rodgers makes two changes from the first leg. Jeffrey Schlupp and Jota replace Greg Taylor and Adam Idah. That means Daizen Maeda will start up front, a role he performed so well in the last 25 minutes at Celtic Park.
Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1) Neuer; Stanisic, Upamecano, Kim, Guerreiro; Kimmich, Goretzka; Olise, Musiala, Gnabry; Kane. Substitutes: Urbig, Sane, Coman, Dier, Joao Palhinha, Davies, Ito, Boey, Vidovic, Muller, Laimer, Pavlovic. Celtic (4-3-3) Schmeichel; Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Trusty, Schlupp; Engles, McGregor, Hatate; Kuhn, Maeda, Jota. Substitutes: Sinisalo, Bain, Taylor, Scales, Idah, Yang, McCowan, Nawrocki, Kenny, Murray, Ralston, Bonnar.
Referee Benoit Bastien (France). This is the third time Celtic have played Bayern away from home, all in the Champions League. The first two were in the group stages, a narrow 2-1 defeat in 2003-04 and a more emphatic 3-0 defeat in 2017-18. Two of the goalscorers that night, Thomas Muller and Joshua Kimmich, are in the Bayern squad tonight. We’ll have updates from the night’s other Champions League matches. AC Milan lead Feyenoord 1-0 at half-time, which makes it 1-1 on aggregate. Santi Gimenez, signed from Feyenoord earlier this month, scored after 36 seconds.
The other matches kick off at 8pm. Atalanta v Club Brugge (first leg: 1-2). Benfica v Monaco (first leg: 1-0). Brendan Rodgers on what Celtic need to do to win. We’ve got the one opportunity. We’ve got to be clever, we’ve got to be bright, we’ve got to be brave in the game. And if we can do that, we’ve shown, and history’s shown in sport, that anything can happen. Hello and welcome to live coverage of Bayern Munich v Celtic at the Allianz Arena. It’s Mission: Near Impossible for Celtic, who are 2-1 down from the first leg in Glasgow and have a very poor record way from home in Europe. The bad news is that it’s highly unlikely they will go through; the good news is that, if they do, it’ll be their greatest European night in a generation.
