Kairat Almaty team news

The host team has an almost full-strength squad available. The only long-term absentees are Elder Santana and Joao Paulo, both sidelined with cruciate ligament injuries.

However, there is a doubt regarding the availability of goalkeeper Aleksandr Zarutskiy, who was forced off injured in Glasgow. This could mean that Temirlan Anarbekov might be starting in goal.

Celtic team news

Defender Alistair Johnston remains out with a hamstring injury, while striker Adam Idah is sidelined with a knock. Auston Trusty has a foot issue, and Jota is recovering from a cruciate ligament layoff.

On a positive note, Benjamin Nygren is in excellent form after scoring two goals against Livingston at the weekend, and he is likely to retain his spot on the flank.
