CELTIC v MANCHESTER CITY BETTING PREVIEW
Celtic are currently sitting pretty at the top of the Scottish Premier League table, having collected 16 points from a possible 18. They recently hammered bitter rivals Rangers 5-1 and go into this match on the back of a 6-1 trashing of Kilmarnock. Anyway, the Hoops were humbled 7-0 by Barcelona at Camp Nou in their first Champions League fixture.The Hoops have several ex-City players in their squad including defender Kolo Toure, Scott Sinclair and on-loan winger Patrick Roberts. Leigh Griffiths is back available following injury but faces competition for a starting berth from Moussa Dembele. Dorus de Vries picked up a chest injury at the weekend and is a doubt, with Craig Gordon in line to replace to veteran keeper.
Manchester City have won all 10 of their competitive games under Pep Guardiola this season. They are four points clear in the Premier League already thanks to their 100% winning record, and made an impressive start in Champions League with a 4-0 win over Borussia Moenchengladbach. The Citizens are shaky at the back but they have already rattled in 30 goals in 10 competitive outings.
Pep Guardiola will be without the service of Vincent Kompany while Kevin De Bruyne has a little muscle problem. The Spaniard has rotated in the full-back positions at times but Bacary Sagna and Aleksandar Kolarov seem to be favoured over Pablo Zabaleta and Gael Clichy respectively. Up front, Sergio Aguero looks sure to start while David Silva, Ilkay Gundongan and Raheem Sterling will play alongside De Bruyne as offensive midfielder.
