Celtic return to domestic action this afternoon (Sunday) when they travel to Rugby Park to take on Kilmarnock (KO: 3pm).
And Brendan Rodgers’ side are looking to maintain their strong start to the Premiership season, which has seen them remain unbeaten after four games and yet to concede a league goal.
There is a debut for new Bhoy, Sebastian Tounekti, with the Tunisian internationalist having joined the club from Hammarby last month.
Uruguayan Marcelo Saracchi makes his first start, having come on as a substitute in the recent Glasgow derby at Ibrox, while Mikel-Ange Balikwisha continues in the starting XI. Striker Kelechi Iheanacho is named amongst the substitutes.
And with Anthony Ralston ruled out through injury, 19-year-old Colby Donovan is set to slot in at right-back, in what is his first start.
Kick-off at Rugby Park is 3pm and you can follow the build-up and all the action on the club website’s Match Centre.
CELTIC: Schmeichel, Donovan, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Saracchi, McGregor, Hatate, Nygren, Tounekti, Maeda, Balikwisha.Subs: Sinisalo, Yang, McCowan, Iheanacho, Engels, Bernardo, Murray, Forrest, Tierney
