Team’s Up – Mvuka, Cvancara and Hatate start for Celtic

Martin O’Neill has named his Celtic team for this evening’s Scottish Cup Fifth Round against Dundee. The veteran manager will be hoping to get his hands on the trophy that he last picked up in May 2005, after Celtic beat Dundee United in his last game.

New signing Mvuka starts in the wide position after his deadline day loan signing from Lorient. Meanwhile, Junior Adamu has been named on the bench.

Vil Sinisalo starts in goals. The Finnish goalie kept a clean sheet against Talbot and will be keen to impress today in a rare outing.

In defence, Kieran Tierney and Julian Araujo start in the fullback berths with Auston Trusty and Liam Scales in the central pairing.

In midfield, Callum McGregor starts with Reo Hatate and Paulo Bernardo.

In attack, Tomas Cvancara starts through the middle with Yang and Mvuka on the wings.

Subs: Doohan, Nygren, Adamu, McCowan, Tounekti, Saracchi, Murray, Forrest & Donovan.

MON is clearly giving Daizen Maeda, Kasper Schmeichel, Tony Ralston and Arne Engels rests after a hectic period. Kelechi Iheanacho might have been hoping for some minutes on the pitch as he works back from injury.
