These games sandwiched between the two Europa League ties can be tricky and Kilmarnock will be resolute in their defending. Scott Brown is likely to miss out so there's a dynamic there to address and possibly give us a glimpse of the future without our inspirational leader on the park. Ryan Christie, who was crazily booked for that penalty incident on Thursday is suspended for next week so will hopefully take out his frustrations on Killie. Jeremie Frimpong will come face-to-face with hard man Alan Power and we should see Tom Rogic get a run out. Will Griffiths and Taylor be ready of will they be kept for Thursday night?
Team could look something like this.
Forster (get him signed, Celtic)
Frimpong, Ajer, Jullien, Bolingoli
McGregor, Ntcham
Forrest, Christie, Elyounoussi
Edouard
Score? Get to 3-0 then take the foot off the pedal. Use the subs, Rogic, Bitton and Bayo...replacing three key starters on Thursday, McGregor, Ntcham and Edouard.
Mon the Celts and the Saints.
