Brendan Rodgers makes two changes to the Celtic side that lost to Lazio in midweek for today’s SPFL visit from Kilmarnock.

Cameron Carter-Vickers, a second half substitute against the Italians, makes his first start since August 13 to partner Liam Scales in central defence with Nat Phillips dropping to the bench.

Luis Palma comes in for Yang Hyun-jun on the wing with Rodgers leaving the midfield unchanged.

There is no place on the bench for David Turnbull or Gus Lagerbielke although Odin Thiago Holm is listed after missing the Lazio match through suspension.

Kilmarnock haven’t won any of the six matches that they have played since beating Celtic in the League Cup, last week they drew 1-1 at home to St Mirren.

CELTIC: Hart; Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor; McGregor, Hatate, O’Riley; Palma, Kyogo, Maeda

SUBS: Bain, Phillips, Ralston, Oh, Yang, Holm, Iwata, Bernardo, Forrest
