Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic starting XI to face Dundee United at Celtic Park tonight. With Rangers not in action until tomorrow, the Hoops have the chance to go 16 points clear, at least for the time being.

Having bounced back impressively on Sunday with a 3-0 win over St Mirren at Celtic Park, despite a blackout in the stadium during the game, Celtic appear to be back to normal after a surprising 3-0 defeat at Ibrox six days ago.

With Auston Trusty, Luke McCowan, Arne Engels, and Adam Idah all coming into the Celtic starting 11 against Stephen Robinson’s side, Rodgers may look to rotate again tonight, with yet another game against Ross County on Saturday in Dingwall.

Trusty and Engels certainly made the most of their opportunity to start, with the American heading home his first Celtic goal from an Engels corner in the 43rd minute of the game.

After such an impressive performance against St Mirren, it is as would be expected again against a tough Dundee United side, who currently sit third in the Scottish Premiership.

Of the four players who came into the team on Sunday, the one question tonight would have been Kyogo or Idah.

It is great to see Rodgers give the Irishman a run in the team after a stop-start first half of the season, with much of it spent on the bench.

Idah himself will be desperate to get on the scoresheet tonight and cement himself as first choice.

Kick-off for tonight’s game is at 19:45, and it is live on Celtic TV through PPV in the UK.
