HOW will Celtic react to the huge disappointment of going out of the Europa League to Copenhagen. Their subsequent great draw merely added insult to injury.

Scott Brown gambled last night but it didn't pay off and he should sit this one out. Nir Bitton should play. It should be the 3-5-2 that worked so well the last time we were in Perth, although Ntcham is going to miss this one - he opened the scoring on the previous visit.

The Europa Exit makes the job simpler - less football to worry about and we'll be in a game a week territory too, crucially around the time we go to Ibrox and they play the Germans either side of the Glasgow Derby. Could be significant.

Sunday's team? And can we use the flaming subs this time please Lenny? And no christian names after last night.

St Johnstone did us a favour last weekend, getting a draw against the Rangers, so they will fancy their chances. Getting the first goal is crucial. Expect us to edge it 3-1....
 
Get back to the 352, get the half fit rested

Get the £6m worth of January signings on the bench along with Dembele, and if we’re a couple ahead get them on for the last half hour.
