Brendan Rodgers has two fresh injury worries to contend with after Celtic’s Betfred Cup win over Hearts.
Eboue Kouassi and Olivier Ntcham both had to be replaced during the 3-0 win and are now rated doubtful for Wednesday’s trip to Dundee.
Filip Benkovic, Kris Ajer and Tom Rogic all returned from injury to start against Hearts but the victory wasn’t achieved without cost.

Scott Brown and Leigh Griffiths will definitely miss Wednesday’s match with Jozo Simunovic and Cristian Gamboa picking up injuries in the Europa League defeat from RB Leipzig.
Ryan Christie and Scott Sinclair demonstrated that Celtic has the depth of squad to cope with injury problems but Brendan Rodgers will be hoping that the treatment room starts to clear.
Dedryck Boyata will be available to start against Dundee with the Celtic boss likely to have one eye on Saturday’s match against Hearts when he picks his side at Dens Park.
