Manager Ange Postecoglou has named his Celtic team vs Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership tonight.
The full match squad is as follows:
Starting XI – Hart, Juranovic, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Taylor, Hatate, Mooy, O’Riley, Jota, Kyogo, Abada.
Substitutes – Siegrist, Ralston, Jenz, Abildgaard, Turnbull, Forrest, Maeda, Hakšabanović, Giakoumakis.
Having won 12 from 13 matches in the Scottish top-flight already this season, hopes are high of another strong Celtic performance and victory tonight.
The manager has made six changes to the team which defeated Dundee United at the weekend. Kyogo Furuhashi, Liel Abada, Josip Juranovic, Aaron Mooy, Greg Taylor and Carl Starfelt all come into the side.
It’s all set up to be another cracking night under the lights at Fir Park. Three points would further solidify Celtic’s position at the top of the table, so let’s get the job done Bhoys!

Instant verdict on Celtic team vs Motherwell
Many of the changes Ange Postecoglou makes tonight were expected. In fact, we were only one out when it came to our predicted XI.
The manager is very much on the same wavelength as much of the support right now, who recognise the necessary rotation policy as being key to maintaining good form amidst a busy schedule.
Bringing Kyogo and Abada back into the team, our two top scorers this term, adds a lethal edge to the line-up while preserving Jota’s raw creativity.
It’s also fantastic to see Starfelt reunite with Cameron Carter-Vickers in defence after injuries to both have kept them apart in recent weeks.
The bench, as usual, is ridiculously strong should we need it.
