The Rossoblu are in quite a strong position in the Europa League after winning three of the last four games, including an impressive 2-1 victory away to Celta Vigo.

However, their Serie A form has been poor in 2026, scraping one win, two draws and three losses.

Santiago Castro is out with flu symptoms, joining the injured Federico Bernardeschi and Jhon Lucumi, while Riccardo Orsolini and Martin Vitik are not at 100 per cent.

The good news is the return of goalkeeper Skorupski after more than two months on the treatment table.

Dallinga steps into attack, supported by Rowe and Benjamin Dominguez.

Scotland international Lewis Ferguson pulls the midfield strings.

Ineligible for this tournament are Remo Freuler, Ciro Immobile, Lorenzo De Silvestri, new signings Simon Sohm and Eivind Helland.

Celtic have had a disastrous campaign and are back under the stewardship of manager Martin O’Neill, their third boss of the season following Brendan Rodgers and a very brief stint under Wilfried Nancy.

They were hammered 3-0 by Roma at home in their most recent Europa League match, the third defeat in six rounds, along with a draw and wins over Sturm Graz and Feyenoord.

The Hoops also have a big injury list, missing Kelechi Iheanacho, Jota, Marcelo Saracchi, Callum Osmand, Alistair Johnston and Cameron Carter-Vickers, while new signings Julian Araujo and Stephen Welsh are ineligible for the Europa League.

Yang Huynjun and Sebastian Tounekti therefore support Japan international Daizen Maeda, with veteran Kasper Schmeichel in goal.
