TIMO Weah and Mikey Johnston start with James Forrest and Oli Burke dropping to the bench.
Scott Bain continues in goal and will be looking for his third consecutive shutout since winning a regular starting slot against Airdrie last weekend.
Dedryck Boyata misses out again so Kristoffer Ajer partners Filip Benkovic in the central defensive roles with Mikael Lustig and Emilio Izaguirre the full backs.
Anthony Ralston is out after picking up an ankle injury in the closing stages of the Scottish Cup win over Airdrie.
Scott Brown and Callum McGregor and in their usual spots while Ryan Christie has recovered from a bruising evening against St Mirren to play in the number 10 position. Tom Rogic, incidentally is on his way back to Scotland after Australia’s shock quarter-final defeat to hosts UAE in the Asian Cup yesterday.
Rogic was suspended for this match after being up a ridiculous booking in the previous match – his second of the tournament- so he will be reasonably well rested and could even feature on Wednesday night when St Johnstone arrive for the first of three games against Celtic.
Wide-men today are Scotty Sinclair and Mikey Johnston with Timo Weah up top.
Subs – Gordon, Simunovic, Bitton, Hayes, Burke, Forrest and Henderson.
