Celtic could welcome back Olivier Ntcham and Odsonne Edouard this weekend.
Celtic picked up another win on Wednesday night as they beat Hibernian 2-0 at Parkhead – and Brendan Rodgers is set for a double boost.
The Bhoys had beaten St Johnstone on Sunday, and picked up yet another victory in a comfortable night against managerless Hibs.
Ryan Christie grabbed Celtic’s opening goal, as a fine one-two between Jeremy Toljan and Timothy Weah saw the right back tee up Christie to score.
Oliver Burke added the second, using his pace to get in behind the Hibs defence before his shot was deflected into the net.
Celtic kept their six-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table with that win, ensuring that Rangers didn’t gain any ground on them with their win over Aberdeen last night.
Rodgers’ side are back in action again on Sunday afternoon as they take on St Johnstone again, this time in the Scottish Cup – and two players could return.
Rodgers has revealed that Olivier Ntcham – who hasn’t played at all in 2019 – is almost ready to come back, and may be ready for weekend.
Forward Odsonne Edouard will be back on Sunday too, with the French striker set to hand Rodgers a major double boost.
