Ange Postecoglou has resisted the temptation to make any changes from the starting eleven from last weekend’s trip to Dingwall. That means that Daizen Maeda has recovered from his knock and will play on the wing on the opposite side to Jota – with the two interchanging throughout the match and with Kyogo leading the line.

Expect to see the likes of Abada and Giakoumakis coming off the bench.

Reo Hatate is fit after his rough treatment against Aberdeen on the opening day but will sit this one out as the manager has concerns about him on the plastic pitch.

So the Celtic team to play Kilmarnock at Rugby Park in the midday kick-off is as follows:

Hart,

Juranovic, Jenz, Carter-Vickers, Taylor

Turnbull, McGregor, O’Riley

Jota, Kyogo, Maeda

Subs: Siegrist, Starfelt, Giakoumakis, Abada, Mooy, McCarthy, Bernabei, Forrest and Ralston.
