Cedric Kipre has had his sending off against Celtic overturned and will be available to face Sevco on March 31.

Motherwell were furious with the decision of referee Craig Thomson to give the defender his marching orders shortly before half time.

Kipre was involved in a clash with Scott Brown that resulted in a straight red card for the Fir Park man.

After the match Stephen Robinson wasn’t slow to express his anger highlighting how all five Premiership players sent off by Thomson were Motherwell players.

Motherwell followed the SFA procedure of appealing the decision and will now have Kipre in their side following the international break.

Sevco travel to Fir Park trailing Celtic by ten points despite having played a game more with Graeme Murty knowing that Hibs and Aberdeen are both eyeing up second place.

Although Motherwell won’t play Celtic again in the Premiership the two clubs could meet in the final of the Scottish Cup.
