Leigh Griffiths plays his first match in six months when he leads the line for Celtic against SK Pinkfeld, kick off 5.30pm.

The striker was given time off to deal with personal issues in December and returned to training at the end of March but never featured in any matches.

Neil Lennon has been very supportive of the former Hibs striker who is one of the few experienced names in the starting line up for today’s match.

Armstrong Oko Flex and Barry Coffey make their first top team appearances with none of the internationalists who were in action until June 12 featuring in the side which has Conor Hazard in goals.

January signing Andrew Gutman is listed among the subs but there is no place for fellow countryman Manny Perez.

CELTIC: Hazard; Ralston, Simunovic, Welsh, Hayes; Christie, Coffey; Oko Flex, Sinclair, Miller; Griffiths

SUBS: Doohan, Gutman, Savoury, Morrison, Henderson, Aitchison, Johnston, Dembele, Robertson
