Celtic substitutes: Bain, Simunovic, Kouassi, Sinclair, Hayes, Johnston, Griffiths.
Celtic are in Champions League qualifying action again this evening as they take on Greek side AEK Athens in the first leg of their clash at Celtic Park.
The Bhoys have so far seen off Alashkert of Armenia and Norway’s Rosenborg, but now take on AEK, who won the Greek league title last season.
Brendan Rodgers saw his side kick off their league campaign with a 3-1 win over Livingston, and will now be looking for another win tonight as Celtic chase a group stage spot.
Craig Gordon starts in goal, whilst Mikael Lustig, Jack Hendry, Kristoffer Ajer and Kieran Tierney line up in a back four, with Rodgers moving away from the 3-5-2 system he tested earlier in pre-season.
It instead appears to be a 4-2-3-1, with Scott Brown and Olivier Ntcham in central midfield, allowing Tom Rogic to play as a number 10, whilst James Forrest and Callum McGregor out wide.
Odsonne Edouard leads the line up front, with Moussa Dembele still unavailable through injury, though Leigh Griffiths is available on the bench for the Bhoys this evening.
Scott Bain, Jozo Simunovic, Eboue Kouassi, Scott Sinclair, Jonny Hayes and Mikey Johnston join him as substitutes, with Celtic chasing a strong first leg performance tonight.
