Ange Postecoglou has made five changes to the Celtic side that started away to Hearts with Kyogo Furuhashi and Giorgos Giakoumakis starting together for the first time this season.

Josip Juranovic and Greg Taylor come in to the full back positions as expected but it is in attack that things look interesting.

So far this season Postecoglou has only played with one striker but with just two goals from four Champions League matches two strikers are in the starting line up.

Sead Haksabanovic looks to be replacing Aaron Mooy in midfield in what looks to be an even more attack minded side as the hoops look for the win to keep alive their hopes of third place and a Europa League place.

Next Wednesday Celtic conclude their group matches away to Real Madrid, tonight’s officials are from the Netherlands.

CELTIC: Hart; Juranovic, Carter-Vickers, Jenz, Taylor; Hatate, O’Riley; Abada, Giakoumakis, Kyogo, Haksabanovic

SUBS: Siegrist, Bain, Mooy, Turnbull, McCarthy, Bernabei, Abildgaard, Maeda, Forrest, Ralston

    Mcgregor is a Los not only in position but taking O’riley away from his the forwards are there not only to score but to defend from the front
    So no sliding challenges for early bookings just need to harassing the opposition goals will come but need to stay focused

    1 goal to the good at halftime. Difference this time is chance taken, keep it up Celtic and win is there. However one thing I noticed was when pass was on, shot was taken. Hope Ange settles the Bhoys down and remind them that the assist is just as important as the shot. So far competent display, win attainable.
