Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic team for this afternoon’s Scottish Premiership clash against Kilmarnock. The Scottish Champions were beaten by St Johnstone last week and the manager fumed about complacency in his squad, promising changes today.

Sinisalo starts in goals in the absence of No.1 Kasper Schmeichel. The Finnish stopper will be eager to get back to keeping a clean sheet this afternoon.

Liam Scales comes into the defence along with Greg Taylor – with Auston Trusty and Jeffrey Schlupp dropping to the bench. Cameron Carter-Vickers and Alistair Johnston retain their places in the team. In midfield, Callum McGregor starts alongside Reo Hatate and Arne Engels. In attack, Adam Idah starts through the middle with Daizen Maeda and James Forrest in the wide areas.
The Bhoys are in the building 🎒
