Neil Lennon has named his Celtic team for today’s Scottish Premiership visit to Hamilton Academical.
The full match squad is as follows:
Starting XI – Hazard, Frimpong, Ajer, Bitton, Taylor, Soro, McGregor, Turnbull, Christie, Edouard, Griffiths.
Substitutes – Barkas, Duffy, Brown, Ajeti, Klimala, Rogic, Johnston, Elyounoussi, Laxalt.
The Boxing Day clash in Hamilton is another massive match for Celtic.
The Bhoys have yet to fully rebound from a poor period of form earlier in the season. Only consistent league results will allow the team to turn that corner.
In anticipation of upcoming matches against Dundee United and Rangers, three points are an absolute must today.
The manager has named a mostly unchanged eleven to the one that comfortably beat Ross County through the week.
Leigh Griffiths and Odsonne Edouard will again get the opportunity to forge a partnership, with David Turnbull and Ismaila Soro playing through the middle.
