  1. Lauder on bench for City; Muir returnspublished at 09:54 British Summer Time 6 September 2023

    Glasgow City v Shelbourne (10:00) & Celtic v Brondby (13:00)

    A wee bit to unpack in Leanne Ross' starting line-up.

    The big news is captain Hayley Lauder has not made it from the off. She pulled up injured in the warm-up against Hearts on Saturday night, and makes the bench this morning.

    Amy Muir, though, is back for her first game since scoring against Thistle on 20 August.

    Claire Walsh, who has been such a stalwart in the heart of defence recently drops to the bench with Meikayla Moore and 19-year-old Kenzie Weir maintaining their spots.

    Now all that complicated stuff is out of the way, let's have a wee look at City's line-up, aye?...

    Aye, seems a bit strange, eh? But that's what is happening.

    If you need a wee reminder, this stage of the competition is a wee mini-tournament of four teams.

    Win today, and Leanne Ross' side will face either Cardiff City or FC Gintra - the hosts of today's game.

    That's not them then in the group stages, though, a two-legged play-off than awaits. Quite the journey...

    Make a bit more sense?

    Good morning, how goes it?

    Anyone else struggling through hump day? Fancy some Champions League action to pick you up?

    Lucky for you, that's exactly what we have as Glasgow City and Celtic begin their quest for the group stages of Europe's elite competition.
