Ange Postecoglou has named his Celtic team for today’s home match against Ferencvaros in the Europa League, as per the official UEFA website.

The full match squad is as follows:

Starting XI – Hart, Ralston, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Montgomery, McGregor, Turnbull, Rogic, Abada, Jota, Kyogo

Substitutes – Barkas, Bain, Scales, Bitton, Giakoumakis, Ajeti, Soro, Johnston, Urhoghide, Welsh,

After back-to-back domestic wins, Celtic are looking to transfer their recent upturn in form onto the European stage. Victory over Ferencvaros this afternoon would be yet more evidence Postecoglou and his Bhoys are turning an important corner.

The manager has made one change to his starting XI from the 2-0 win at Motherwell on Saturday, with Adam Montgomery coming in for the unregistered Boli Bolingoli.

Fan reaction to Celtic team vs Ferencvaros

Unsurprisingly, there’s a confidence in the air after our recent domestic away-day successes. Looking through the starting XI this afternoon, there isn’t a lot to complain about either.

The attacking line-up presented by Postecoglou certainly has the supporters in good spirits. Montgomery for Boli was the only real major change expected, and with a front three of Liel Abada, Jota, and Kyogo all starting, the excitement is palpable.

These supporters have taken to Twitter to share their thoughts on it:
