Celtic have been handed a boost over Giorgos Giakoumakis with his national team boss rating his chances of facing Northern Ireland as 50/50.
The Hoops striker went for a scan on a leg injury over the weekend and it was feared he would miss out for his country in their final Nations League game. He was suspended for the defeat to Cyprus in the first game of the international break - with his country League C Group 2 winners with four wins and a draw going into the final game.
Gus Poyet picked the Hoops hitman with a view to facing Northern Ireland on matchday six and despite an injury concern, he is now pushing to feature later tonight. That news should mean he will be ready for Celtic and Ange Postecoglou as they return to domestic matters this weekend before the Champions League takes centre stage next midweek.
