Brendan Rodgers has made SEVEN changes to the Celtic side that beat Zenit St Petersburg for today’s Premiership match against St Johnstone.
Dorus de Vries, Kris Ajer, Eboue Kouassi and Callum McGregor keep their places but other than that it is an all change team ahead of Thursday’s return leg in Russia.
Saint Johnstone are on a terrible run of results with only a Scottish Cup win over Albion Rovers since winning at Ibrox on December 16.
Four successive defeats in the Premiership have seen them drop into the bottom half of the table after almost becoming a fixture in the top six.
Back in August it took a late equaliser from Callum McGregor to maintain Celtic’s unbeaten run although the hoops enjoyed a comfortable 4-0 win in Perth at the start of November.
CELTIC De Vries; Gamboa, Hendry, Ajer, Miller; Kouassi, Rogic; McGregor, Musonda, Sinclair; Edouard
SUBS: Bain, Simunovic, Ralston, McInroy, Tierney, Forest, Dembele
