HIBERNIAN have had a request rejected by the SPFL after they requested ALL Celtic players eligible tonight be retested ahead of the tie.
The Easter Road club had made the request but protocols in place have been followed and there will be no second testing.
Some Hibs players apparently have reservations about playing a team who have had so many call-offs due to self isolation.
BREAKING: Hibs' request for Celtic to be tested for #COVID19 again has been refused by Celtic & SPFL on grounds that it's not required under current protocols.
Some Hibs players have reservations about playing, but it's unclear at this stage if any have chosen not to play.

Celtic are set to put out a very patched up side for the Monday evening kick off. The Edinburgh club should fancy their chances against the bhoys considering what’s went on.
Celtic have been the architects of their own downfall. The trip to Dubai was an awful decision and it’s come back to bite us in a shambolic fashion.
We await the starting XI, this really is the most sought after team sheet in the modern era. Who is out due to isolation and who’s in?
