Ange Postecoglou has named his side for this afternoon’s game against Kilmarnock. The Scottish Champions can go twelve points clear over nearest challengers Rangers, who play tomorrow afternoon against Dundee United.
In goals, Celtic’s No.1 Joe Hart starts. The Englishman conceded twice at Ibrox but was unfortunate given how good the strikes were. He will be looking for an assured performance between the sticks.
In defence, Carl Starfelt and Cameron Carter-Vickers make up the central pairing. The duo are joined by Alistair Johnston at right-back, who made his debut at Ibrox and impressed, along with Argentine Alexandro Bernabei who starts at left-back.
In midfield, skipper Callum McGregor is joined by Reo Hatate and Aaron Mooy. The manager has a number of options in the centre of the park and players will be looking to take advantage and hold down a regular starting slot alongside CalMac.
In attack, Kyogo starts through the middle. The Japanese striker is joined by his compatriot Daizen Maeda at left-wing and Jota starts at right-back.
Subs are Bain, Jenz, Giakoumakis, Abada Turnbull Kobayashi, O’Riley, Forrest and Juranovic.
