Mikael Lustig is the latest Celtic injury problem.

Brendan Rodgers made seven changes to the Betfred Cup winning side for last night’s 1-1 draw at Motherwell with two of those switches enforced.

Dedryck Boyata’s hamstring strain could see him out of action until January but after the final whistle at Fir Park Rodgers revealed that Lustig was also injured at Hampden.

Cristian Gamboa came in for the Swede last night, starting his first SPFL Premiership match of the season.

With top of the table Kilmarnock to be faced on Saturday Rodgers will need to play his strongest side just five days before the Europa League visit from RB Salzburg.

Steve Clarke’s side won 2-0 at home to Kilmarnock last night to leapfrog Celtic into top spot.

Celtic lost 2-1 at Rugby Park earlier in the season, their last domestic defeat but draws away to Livingston and Motherwell have proved costly although the hoops do have two games in hand over the Ayrshire side.
