Ange Postecoglou has made two enforced changes to the Celtic side that started the Scottish Cup semi-final for today’s match away to Hearts.

Alastair Johnston and Cameron Carter-Vickers miss out through injury with Tony Ralston and Yuki Kobayashi coming into defence.

Matt O’Riley and Reo Hatate join Callum McGregor in midfield with the usual front three looking to get the goals to clinch the SPFL title.

Liel Abada returns from injury to make the bench for the first time since March 18, Rocco Vata and the injured Stephen Welsh drop out with Bosun Lawal the back up central defender on the bench.

Nick Walsh is today’s referee with Willie Collum on VAR, McLean refereed Celtic’s 4-3 win at Tynecastle in October when VAR was used for the first time in the SPFL.

CELTIC: Hart; Ralston, Starfelt, Kobayashi, Taylor; McGregor, Hatate, O’Riley; Jota, Kyogo, Maeda

SUBS: Bain, Haksabanovic, Abada, Mooy, Turnbull, Oh, Iwata, Bernabei, Lawal

    You have to applaud the sfa/spfl! They are pulling out all the stops here, giving it their best possible anti-Celtic line-up as they try to block the victory!
