Hopefully this Scottish Cup game goes ahead and is not a victim on Storm Ciara, as Celtic's SLO John Paul Taylor mentioned yesterday as a possibility.


If it's off we'll be back in Cumbernauld on Wednesday night and that means that the Hearts game would be off, which would be frustrating to say the least.

Parking is murder at this stadium incidentally with Croy station and nearby schools being used.

Neil Lennon is planning on making a few changes, but you won't see young Stephen Welsh, who is cup tied having played for Morton up at McDiarmid Park in the last round.

Ryan Christie is going to start and we can expect to see Moi Elyounoussi too. There's also a good chance that Patryk Klimala will start and we should also see Ismaila Soro.

"Yeah well, we'll have a look at it definitely," Lenny said at Thursday Media Conference when asked about changes for the Clyde game.

"The game is on Sunday so we'll have a couple of days to decide. We will make a few changes, but not too many. You don't want to over do it though. Guys like Ryan could do with the game and Mohamed Elyounoussi, he's coming back to fitness and might need some game time. We'll still be strong."

The plastic pitch should see Jozo rested, no chances need to be taken on that one and it would be good to give Odsonne an afternoon off too, maybe Jamesy too.

Likely side? Who knows, here's my prediction anyway...Forster Bauer, Jullien, Ajer, Taylor, Brown, McGregor, Christie, Elyounoussi, Klimala and Griffiths. (Playing the diamond shape we used at Firhill).

Scoreline? No shocks this time 5-0.
