Celtic starting team news vs Aberdeen as big Kyogo Furuhashi decision made by Ange Postecoglou

Ange Postecoglou has made a big call over Kyogo Furuhashi for Celtic's clash with Aberdeen.

The Hoops boss has decided to LEAVE OUT the Japan international following an issue with his shoulder. The in-form attacker was forced off in the early stages against St Mirren in last week's Scottish Cup fifth round win and despite initial fears has trained the past couple of days and has been named on the bench with Oh Hyeon-gyu in from the start. The big games keep coming with a League Cup Final at Hampden against Rangers next weekend.

Celtic have been relentless in their charge for back to back Scottish Premiership titles and still hold a nine point gap over the Light Blues at the league summit. Michael Beale is unbeaten since taking over the top job in Govan from Giovanni van Bronckhorst but Ange Postecoglou and his troops have not allowed them a sniff in clawing back some of those points and he will be out to maintain that advantage or add to it depending on Rangers' result at Livingston by the close of play today.
