ODSONNE EDOUARD is missing from the Celtic line-up to face AEK Athens which kicks off at 7pm. Indeed Celtic’s record breaking signing has not even made the bench.
The Celtic side for this crucial Champions League Qualifier is as follows:
Gordon
Lustig Hendry Simunovic Tierney
Brown Ntcham
Forrest Rogic McGregor
Griffiths
Subs: Bain, Dembele, Sinclair, Gamboa, Hayes, Johnston, Kouassi
Moussa Dembele as we stated last night starts on the bench and is expected to make an appearance as the game progresses.
Celtic must score to stay in the tie.
It’s a great opportunity for Leigh Griffiths to announce his return to Celtic’s first team after a disappointing period for him personally through a series of niggling injuries that have curtailed his involvement.
Tonight could be the night to right a few wrongs for Griff.
