Brendan Rodgers has picked a full strength Celtic side to face Brechin in today’s Scottish Cup tie.

Stuart Armstrong and Moussa Dembele drop out from the side that started against Sevco on December 30 with Olivier Ntcham and Odsonne Edouard coming in to the starting XI. Mikey Johnston and Calvin Miller are on the bench.

Brechin are 66/1 outsiders for today’s match with the hoops returning to SPFL business on Tuesday when they travel to Firhill to meet Partick Thistle.

After that the hoops host the Edinburgh duo of Hibs and Hearts before the close of the transfer window.

Elsewhere in the Scottish Cup Ryan Christie got the better of Lewis Morgan scoring twice in the first half as Aberdeen powered to a 4-1 win over St Mirren at Pittodrie.

CELTIC: Gordon; Lustig, Boyata, Ajer, Tierney; Brown, Ntcham; Forrest, McGregor, Sinclair; Edouard

SUBS De Vries, Simunovic, Bitton, Kouassi, Miller, Johnston, Dembele
