Team’s Up – Jim Goodwin names United XI for Celtic Park

Jim Goodwin has named his Dundee United team for this afternoon’s Scottish Premiership clash against Celtic. The Arabs won the meeting between the clubs at Tannadice last month after coming from behind to inflict further misery on Wilfried Nancy.

However, after the weekend’s Glasgow Derby defeat to Rangers, Nancy was sacked meaning Goodwin will face off against Martin O’Neill, who put him in the reserves when he was a player.

United lost to Dundee last eeekend and will be looking for a reaction. They set up in a typically defensive fashion but they will look to punish Celtic on the break and capitalise on set pieces.

Richards, Sevelj, Keretzses, Graham, Naamo, Sibbald, Camara, Stephenson, Ferry, Stirton, Sapsford.

Subs: Adams, Cleall-Harding, Eskesen, Fatah, Iovu, Moller, Strain, Trapanovski, Watters.

Elsewhere, O’Neill has named his team with the club reverting to a 4-2-3-1 formation with Seb Tounekti returning to the squad.

Schmeichel, Araujo, Trusty, Scales, Tierney, McGregor, Hatate, Engels, Yang, Tounekti, Maeda.

Subs: Sinisalo, Nygren, McCowan, Kenny, Bernardo, Murray, Forrest, Donovan, Ralston.
