Stuttgart face Celtic away from home in the first-leg of the UEFA Europa League playoff tie. It will be a momentous occasion for Martin O’Neill, as Celtic’s head coach will be in the managerial dugout for his 1,000th game.
Borussia Mönchengladbach loanee Tomáš Čvančara starts up front after three direct goal involvements in his first four appearances as a Celtic player. Meanwhile, Stuttgart’s January addition Jeremy Arévalo isn’t named in the revised Europa League squad. Angelo Stiller returns to the starting XI after coming off the bench in Sunday's win against Köln. Bilal El Khannouss also comes on in place of Chris Führich in Stuttgart's attacking line.
Here are the lineups for both teams in the game at Celtic Park.
