Celtic travel to Easter Road on Sunday to face Neil Lennon’s Hibernian.
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers will be questioning a number of his side’s first-team stars following the Hoops disappointing loss to Anderlecht on Tuesday night, when it comes to picking his side for Sunday’s clash.
The Bhoys face Neil Lennon’s Hibernian at Easter Road in a tricky away trip that will surely test Celtic’s marvellous 67-game unbeaten run, which has seen the Hoops breeze past the previous British record set by themselves.
Former Celtic player and manager Lennon has guided his Hibs side to fourth in the Scottish Premiership, an impressive return after only gaining promotion back to the top tier of Scottish football last season.
Hibs will fancy their chances after watching Celtic lose in the Champions League on Tuesday, with their players benefiting from a full week’s rest as well as coming into the game off the back of a 1-0 win away at Partick Thistle.
Rodgers will be without French striker Moussa Dembele, after the goal machine was forced off the field of play in the 74th minute with an injury, while long-term absentee Anthony Ralston remains sidelined.
That will see him choose between Leigh Griffiths or Odsonne Edouard to lead the Celtic attack, with Hibs being one of Griffiths former sides.
Rodgers could make three changes to his side, after 28-year-old Scott Sinclair and midfielder Stuart Armstrong were hauled off at half-time against Anderlecht. They were replaced by Tom Rogic and Olivier Ntcham.
