Celtic have named their starting XI for this afternoon’s SPFL clash against Hibernian at Celtic Park. Brendan Rodgers has made a few notable calls as the Hoops aim to continue their unbeaten league run.
Here’s the team tasked with delivering the goods at Paradise:
Starting XI
Alistair Johnston, Auston Trusty, Liam Scales, Greg Taylor
Callum McGregor (captain), Arne Engels, Luke McCowan,
Kúhn, Daizen Maeda, Adam Idah
A key talking point today is the inclusion of Engels in midfield. The player has endured a dip in form recently, but Rodgers has shown faith by handing him a start—an opportunity to regain his confidence and rediscover his rhythm in the heart of the park. Alongside him, captain Callum McGregor will look to lead by example and keep the team ticking.
Daizen Maeda, Kuhn and Adam Idah spearhead the attack, with their blend of pace and power expected to unsettle the Hibs defence. At the back, the reliable Liam Scales and Auston Trusty start with CCV being rested
Veteran goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel remains a calming presence in goal, ready to guide the team through any sticky moments.
Celtic are unbeaten in the league this season and will hope to continue that today.
