Ange Postecoglou has made six changes to the Celtic side that drew 1-1 away to Shakhtar Donesk for today’s match with St Mirren.

There are two changes in defence, two in midfield and two in the forward line as the hoops go for their seventh successive SPFL win before the international break.

Aaron Mooy makes his first SPFL start at the ground he was introduced to Scottish football a decade ago with recent signing Oliver Abildgaard and Sead Haksabovic listed among the substitutes.

All of the regular starters are on the bench except for Josip Juranovic and Cameron Carter-Vickers, Alexandro Bernabei is the only recognised defender among the nine substitutes.

Following today’s match the players will split up for international duty before returning to face Motherwell on October 1.

CELTIC: Hart; Ralston, Welsh, Jenz, Taylor; McGregor, Turnbull, Mooy, Abada, Kyogo, Maeda

SUBS: Siegrist, Giakoumakis, Haksabanovic, Jota, Bernabei, Abildgaard, O’Riley, Hatate, Forrest

    wake up call to the celtic players and management you cant take anything for granted or you will come unstuck.wed night match the amount of bad finishing was really worrying and today not much better plenty of possession but no end product if celtic fans think this season in the spl is a given they might be in for a shock long long way to go hope today brought us back down to earth no prizes in sept bad day we move on.

    Someone at Celtic park should be sacked.
    Google: Man U- Alex Ferguson- Grey Strip and you’ll know why Celtic lost today and Jota passing straight to an opposition player.

    Yeah, seven changes today, including the strip!

  • TicToc says:

    The strip was a shock to my system and to introduce it with black shorts all round (inc. the MIB) it was a stunning error to make. It lacks the magical green too! IMO that’s NOT ON!
    I was surprised at the starting 11 and felt we started with a team we may have used to finish, that is finish the opposition and see out a win. As mentioned earlier on here, we were well below par on Weds in Poland and continued that worrying trend. But I’m absolutely sure Ange will note what we do and take decisive action before our next game.
    Fitba’s a funny old game alright so we need to sort this quickly, and we will!
