Confirmed: Edouard Benched – Celtic Team V Hibs

Neil Lennon will be aware of other results today and knows his team have to keep pace by turning things up a notch today at Celtic Park against a high flying Hibs team.

Hopefully, there will not be too many tired legs today after a round trip to Latvia during the week were the champions narrowly escaped a dreaded extra time scenario.

A late Mohamed Elyonnussi goal managed to send the Hoops through to the next round in the Europa League qualifiers but the performance was severely lacking much to the annoyance of a lot of Celtic fans.

Celtic may have left with the win but they also travelled back to Glasgow with a few walking wounded. James Forrest was immediately ruled out today while captain Scott Brown was doubtful too.

With the teams just out Neil Lennon has left a few surprises with the main one been Edouard going to the bench for Ajeti.

Scott Brown is fit and starts. The two standouts from Thursday night Frimpong and Elyonussi also start. Leigh Griffiths & Tom Rogic find their way back from the bench.
