Neil Lennon has named his Celtic team for tonight’s match v Ross County in the Scottish Premiership, per the official club website.
The full match squad is as follows:
Starting XI – Bain, Kenny, Ajer, Welsh, Taylor, Brown, McGregor, Turnbull, Rogic, Christie, Edouard.
Substitutes – Hazard, Griffiths, Ajeti, Klimala, Soro, Elyounoussi, Henderson, Ralston, Laxalt.
Celtic are aiming to make it a sixth win in a row tonight on their travels in the Highlands.
It’s a mammoth trip from Glasgow and Lennon revealed on Friday they needed six buses to travel up the A9 this weekend, do to social distancing guidelines.
Awaiting them is a Ross County side in crisis. They’ve only managed to pick up 10 points from the last 39 available. They’re also seriously flirting with relegation.
No doubt though that John Hughes will be eager to fill them with belief that an upset can be caused, just like in the League Cup earlier this season.
Lennon has named a strong line-up for the encounter. There are two changes from the midweek win over Aberdeen; Scott Brown and Tom Rogic replacing Ismaila Soro and Albian Ajeti.

Fan reaction to Celtic team v Ross County
The decision to bring Brown back into the team has proven controversial. Though it must be said that the captain has played pretty well over the last month or so.
Breaking up the Odsonne Edouard and Ajeti partnership is also a point of contention for some, though that may be down to playing an extra midfielder.
Realistically we should have the talent on the pitch to beat County comfortably tonight. They are bottom of the table for a reason.
A professional performance will surely bring three points.
