A Celtic XI will be in action tonight, taking on Dundee at Dens Park in a testimonial for Cammy Kerr.
The defender has spent a decade with his home town club yo-yoing between the Premiership and the Championship under a succession of managers.
Tony Docherty seems to be delivering some success with Dundee riding high in the Premiership and going into the international break on the back of a 4-0 win over St Mirren on Saturday.
There will be a few guests in the Dundee side tonight including Darren O’Dea who finished his playing career on Tayside as a team-mate of Kerr.
It is matchday for Cammy Kerr’s Testimonial Match!
7:45pm kick-off at The Scot Foam Stadium.
If you still haven’t got your tickets buy now online or from the ticket office.
The ticket office will be open right until kick-off tonight. https://t.co/9QzGfPz0jg #thedee pic.twitter.com/B5V5ikEXaO

The make up of the Celtic side is impossible to guess, it would have been a chance for Marco Tilio to wear the hoops but he has been called into the Australian Olympic squad for a couple of friendlies in Saudi Arabia.
Celtic have players away on international duty from u-17 upwards, yesterday Rocco Vata was with the Ireland u-19 squad that beat Albania.
Getting playing time is a real issue with a squad of over 30 first team players but the chance of game time tonight could open the door for a player or two.
O’Dea will return to coaching duties next week with Stephen McManus for the daunting double header of facing Brighton in the PLIC on Friday November 24 followed by Lazio in the UEFA Youth League four days later.
