Postecoglou Makes Eight Changes for Huge Cup Tie – Predicted Tottenham XI v Man City
Spurs Boss Conte to Make Two Changes
Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou has made eight changes to his team for the Scottish League Cup semi-final against Rangers.
The Australian coach has brought in Joe Hart, Stephen Welsh, Moritz Jenz, Greg Taylor, Aaron Mooy, Reo Hatate, Sead Haksabanovic, and Giorgos Giakoumakis.
Postecoglou has kept just three players in the team that started the 2-2 draw with St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday: captain Callum McGregor, Josip Juranovic, and Kyogo Furuhashi.
Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte is expected to make two changes to his team for the Champions League clash against Manchester City.
The Italian coach is likely to recall Eric Dier and Richarlison to the starting line-up, with Davinson Sanchez and Lucas Moura dropping out.
Dier has been out with a thigh injury since the 2-0 win over Everton on 15 October, while Richarlison has been rested for the last two games.
Tottenham will be looking to build on their impressive 2-0 win over Marseille in the Champions League last week.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is expected to make a number of changes to his team for the trip to Tottenham.
The Spaniard could rest some of his key players, such as Kevin De Bruyne, Erling Haaland, and Joao Cancelo.
City will be looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the season and extend their lead at the top of the Premier League.
