Joe Hart is in goals. Josip Juranovic moves over to right-back in the absence of the injured Anthony Ralston and Taylor returns after receiving from his shoulder injury to play at left back. Carl Starfelt joins Cameron Carter Vickers – back in the side after missing the controversial midweek victory over Hearts die to personal reasons – in the heart of the Celtic defence.

Callum McGregor, David Turnbull and Tom Rogic are the midfield three and up from Mikey Johnston starts on the left as a replacement for Jota and James Forrest retains his place on the right wing with Thursday’s gaol hero Kyogo leading the line.
