Celtic will be looking to put a horrendous start to the Champions League behind them when they host Manchester City. Join The Roar from 4:45am (AEST) for live scores and commentary.

After starting their Champions League campaign in the worst way possible with a 7-nil loss to Barcelona, Celtic are in catch-up mode after just one fixture.

Currently atop the Scottish Premiership table, Celtic’s form has been inconsistent, being held to a draw with second-last placed Inverness CT in their last match.

Tom Rogic and Scott Sinclair gave Celtic the lead twice, but an 89th-minute equaliser denied the league leaders all three points.

Currently on top of their table, and coming off two 4-nil wins in a row, Manchester City are on fire.

City are five-out-of-five in the Premier League, including a 2-1 win over bitter rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Sergio Aguero is still out, but with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling and Kelechi Iheanacho all in form for Pep Guardiola, Celtic will need something special to dispose of the English giants.

The last time Celtic and the Citizens clashed was back in 2009, in a club friendly that City won 2-1 at home.

Prediction
Manchester City are on form, and Celtic still haven’t found themselves after that devastating loss to Barcelona. Expect the Citizens to get all three points in Glasgow.

Celtic 0-2 Manchester City
