Leigh Griffiths leads the line for Celtic at Kilmarnock today as Brendan Rodgers makes wholesale changes to his attacking options.

Mikey Johnston, Ryan Christie and Scott Sinclair come off the bench from Thursday’s laboured win over Rosenborg to claim starting places as James Forrest, Tom Rogic and Callum McGregor drop out.

After five consecutive clean sheets the focus will be firmly on Celtic’s attacking options today.

Five goals in five SPFL matches has had the historians searching back for such a slow start for the hoops around goal.

Last season Celtic enjoyed a very comfortable 2-0 win at Rugby Park early in the campaign up failed to win in the three remaining matches against Kilmarnock- after Steve Clarke replaced Lee McCulloch.

Killie have made a steady start to the season with seven points from five tough matches including clashes with Hibs, Hearts and Aberdeen.

CELTIC: Gordon; Lustig, Benkovic, Boyata, Tierney; Brown, Mulumbu; Johnston, Christie, Sinclair; Griffiths
