Fran Alonso has named his Celtic FC Women’s side for this afternoon’s game against SWFL Champions, Glasgow City. It is a battle of the sides that finished in the top two last year but Alonso will be hoping that his team can go one better this year with a win over their Glasgow rivals.
Celtic come into this game after the 4-2 away win over Aberdeen at Cove Rangers’ stadium last week but they will be hoping for a result at home today. The team is out for the game at the Penny Cars Stadium in Airdrie.
1. Logan, 6. Craig, 3. Bartle, 18. Hayes, 24. Bowie, 15. Clark (C), 14. Harkes, 22. Warrington, 17. Atkinson, 21. Wellings, 10. Larisey.
On the bench: Johnstone, Jacynta, Shen, Chance, Toland, Olafsd, Gros and McGovern.

It is a huge game this afternoon and it will be shown on BBC Alba, kicking off at 4:10pm. A positive result today would certainly put down a marker to the other teams that Celtic are getting better and better under Alonso; although, it is expected that an experienced team like Glasgow City will provided a strern test.
Come on Celtic!
