Celtic fans are bracing themselves for a big day of updates as the build-up to Sunday’s Glasgow Derby intensifies.

With the Hoops set to take on Rangers at Celtic Park in a 12:30 pm kick-off, the usual Friday markers are eagerly anticipated—none more so than the latest from Lennoxtown and Brendan Rodgers’ pre-match press conference.

Supporters will be keeping a close eye on the training ground photos released by the club’s social media team this morning. These snaps often offer clues about the squad’s condition going into matchday.

They can reveal who’s back in full training, who’s sitting out, and who might not make it for the weekend. Given the magnitude of Sunday’s fixture, every detail counts.

One name that will be front and centre is Callum McGregor. The Celtic captain was subbed off late in the Scottish Cup win over Hibernian last weekend.

Rodgers made the call to substitute his skipper while the game was still finely poised at 1-0, sparking concern over McGregor’s fitness ahead of this weekend’s derby.

The midfielder has been instrumental again this season, and fans will be hoping to see him involved in full training when the images drop.

Celtic have kept a low profile during the week, adding to the uncertainty around McGregor’s availability. Rodgers will face the media later today, where the manager is expected to provide an official update on the captain and the rest of his squad.

With the Hoops 16 points clear at the top of the table and the title in sight, Sunday’s derby has all the ingredients to be a memorable encounter. The return of away fans—2,400 Rangers supporters making their way into Celtic Park—only adds to the occasion.

All eyes now turn to Lennoxtown for the first signs of how Celtic are shaping up.
