That said, it’s still a strong-looking XI to face Red Imps, with Allan McGregor, George Edmundson, Scott Arfield, Glen Kamara, Greg Stewart and Cedric Itten all coming into the side, four of those being full international players.

They replace Jon McLaughlin, Fil Helander, Ryan Jack, Steven Davis, Ryan Kent and Brandon Barker.

That means it will be the same back five who earned that famous 1-0 win in Braga last season, with McGregor in goal and James Tavernier, Connor Goldson, Edmundson and Borna Barisic in front of him.

Goldson’s start today means he has played every minute of European football since he and Gerrard arrived in Glasgow in summer 2018.

Kemar Roofe and Itten make their first European starts for the club, with the XI completed tonight by Kamara, Arfield, Stewart and Ianis Hagi.
