Lessons Learned as Lennon names strong team

NEIL Lennon seems to have learned his lessons from his night to forget against Cluj by naming a very strong team to play Dunfermline here at Celtic Park this afternoon.

Craig Gordon is in goal and presumably is now our first pick keeper. A thumb injury spared Scott Bain the indignity of being dropped.

The back back four is Elhamed, Jullien, Ajer and Bolingoli – the line-up that should have faced the Romanians.

Bitton replaces Brown as expected and McGregor is back in midfield alongside Christie.

The three forwards are Griffiths, Edouard and Mikey Johnston who was a fitness doubt but plays.

Subs are Hazard, Hayes, Ntcham, Morgan, Bayo, Forrest and Shved.
