Celtic play their penultimate game of pre-season as they kick off their Como Cup campaign.
Brendan Rodgers’ side have travelled to Italy where Celtic will play Ajax and face either Como in the final or Al Ahli in a third-place play-off.
With the Scottish Premiership season beginning next week, this will be the final time players can prove to Rodgers what they are made of and ensure they make the cut at Celtic Park.
Here is how 67 Hail Hail think the Hoops will line up against Ajax.

Brendan Rodgers makes Benjamin Nygren and Arne Engels call
Reo Hatate and Callum McGregor have two of the three midfield positions locked down, meaning that one place between three players is up for grabs.
Luke McCowan will almost certainly start on the bench which leaves Arne Engels and Benjamin Nygren fighting for the spot due to Paulo Bernardo still coming back from international duty.
Nygren has become a fan favourite already and the Celtic manager seems to be a big fan of him too.
Having Engels as an option shows the strength in the position but the Belgium international will sit this one out from the start as the summer signing Nygren takes that spot.
Celtic predicted XI vs Ajax
Rodgers will want to give the side he plans to start plenty of minutes.
Alistair Johnston aside, who has only just returned to Lennoxtown, we will surely see Kasper Schmeichel start in goal with Anthony Ralston, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Liam Scales and Kieran Tierney completing the back four.
A midfield trio of Hatate, McGregor and Nygren then follows before the front three consists of Daizen Maeda, in-form man Johnny Kenny and James Forrest to round off the side.
