Stuart Kettlewell has named his Motherwell team for this afternoon’s game against Celtic. The teams meet in the first Boxing Day clash at Celtic Park in 14 years.
Motherwell drew against Killie on Friday night but were reduced to ten men after a wild refereeing decision. Dan Casey is free to play and starts, alongside ex-Celtic starlet Tony Watt and one to watch, Lennon Miller.
Oxborough, Kaleta, Casey, Balmer, Blaney, Wilson, Paton, Sparrow, Miller, Maswanhise, Watt
Subs: Hegyi, O’Donnell, Gordon, Zdravkovski, Halliday, Stamatelopoulos, Nicholson, Ebiye, Tavares
Elsewhere, Brendan has named his Starting XI as the Scottish Champions look to take all three points for Christmas.
Schmeichel, Ralston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor, McGregor, Engels, Bernardo, Yang, Maeda, Idah
Subs: Sinisalo, Trusty, Palma, Kyogo, Kuhn, Valle, McCowan, Hatate, Welsh
Celtic fans will be pleased at the return of Nicolas Kühn to the squad ahead of next week’s trip to Ibrox to face Rangers.
