Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou has named his starting XI that will take on St Johnstone this afternoon.
Captain Callum McGregor's knee injury has forced a change in the heart of midfield but CDM Oliver Abilgaard doesn't come in to replace the crocked star. There are other changes made after Wednesday's 3-1 Champions League Group F defeat to RB Leipzig in Germany. Cameron Carter-Vickers has missed the last few games with injury but comes in as captain, with Anthony Ralston ahead of Josip Juranovic. Alexandro Bernabei starts, as does Georgios Giakoumakis.
The Hoops are looking to extend their lead at the top of the Premiership in Perth and Postecoglou said ahead of this one: “We’ve got to be up for the fight. We've got to test ourselves and be positive and take the punches when they come along, dust ourselves, get back up and get back stronger because that’s how you create something special. I speak to the players constantly that in elite sport the only way to be truly successful is to be uncomfortable and push yourself and make mistakes.
