Substitutes – Barkas, Taylor, Duffy, Griffiths, Klimala, Ntcham, Edouard, Elhamed, Henderson.
Today’s match is a massive one given our precarious position behind Rangers at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
Dropping more points ahead of their match at home to Aberdeen tomorrow is unthinkable.

To that end, the manager has named an unnamed eleven from that match against the Steelmen, with high profile players such as Shane Duffy and Odsonne Edouard again on the bench.
Albian Ajeti has again been trusted to lead the attack, aided by Tom Rogic, Mohamed Elyonoussi and Ryan Christie.

Fan reaction
The selection of Scott Bain ahead of Vasilis Barkas has raised eyebrows, as has the decision to keep Edouard on the bench. However, the manager clearly feels this group are best placed to pick up another three points.
You can’t blame Lennon for trying to find consistency.
Elsewhere, the absence of David Turnbull from the squad would suggest he could be one of the players caught up the Scotland U21s COVID-19 drama, perhaps self-isolating. We’ll have more on that later.
These fans have taken to Twitter to share their thoughts on it all ahead of today’s match…
Why does he still think Scott Bain is our number 1 https://t.co/vYe19rVSYj

Bain keeping his place is the only gripe I have with this tbh https://t.co/nv5NcwSpGB

No changes from the win against Motherwell. Think that is fair enough
Another big chance for Ajeti to show what he can do like last time. Big game boys, need to get the three points https://t.co/p56SCtK2XX

Sadly didn’t have time to make a predictions graphic but I am surprised by the inclusion of Ajeti in the starting line up. Bain also keeps his place, would have liked to see some faith put in Barkas.
Big game today, let’s go! 🍀 https://t.co/kycCEhzs1d
