Brendan Rodgers has given his defenders a vote of confidence by sticking with the back five that lost three goals to Zenit St Petersburg on Thursday night.

Callum McGregor and Eboue Kouassi drop out of the team with Scott Sinclair and Tom Rogic restored to the side.

Celtic start the match six points ahead of second placed Sevco after dropping five points in their last two matches.

Moussa Dembele’s goal in the 36th minute of the 3-1 win over Hearts on January 30 was the last time that a Celtic player scored in the SPFL Premiership.

On their last visit to Pittodrie Celtic hit top form brushing Derek McInnes’ side away with a devastating 3-0 win thanks to a double from Dembele and a strike from Kieran Tierney.

Celtic are back in action on Wednesday when they host Dundee at Celtic Park.

CELTIC De Vries, Lustig, Simunovic, Ajer, Tierney; Brown, Ntcham; Forrest, Rogic, Sinclair, Dembele
