Martin O’Neill has named his starting XI for Celtic’s Europa League clash against Feyenoord.
The Hoops are in Rotterdam for their fifth game of the campaign, where a win would do their chances of qualifying for the next round of the competition a huge favour.
Robin van Persie is feeling the pressure from the Feyenoord fans after their latest home league loss and will also be without 10,000 home supporters due to a UEFA punishment.
With a host of injuries to deal with, O’Neill has had to work his hardest to deal with that and name an XI that may cause some debate.

- Liam Scales
- Kieran Tierney
- Callum McGregor (C)
- Reo Hatate
- Arne Engels
- Luke McCowan
- Daizen Maeda
- Hyunjun Yang
Substitutes: Viljami Sinisalo (GK), Ross Doohan (GK), Anthony Ralston, Benjamin Nygren, Michel-Ange Balikwisha, Kelechi Iheanacho, Sebastian Tounekti, Johnny Kenny, Samuel Isiguzo, Paulo Bernardo, Dane Murray, Finlay Hale
Sebastian Tounekti and Johnny Kenny dropped
Two of the biggest decisions made by the Hoops interim boss is to drop Sebastian Tounekti and Johnny Kenny.
Tounekti has struggled for some time and needed a spell out of the XI after the goals and assists began to dry up.
Dropping Kenny may seem like a harsher decision, however. Kenny struggled against St Mirren but has been the man providing the goals for the Bhoys with five goals.
Anthony Ralston has also been dropped in place of Colby Donovan – a decision that would probably go down well with supporters.
