Celtic round off their 2018/2019 Premiership season against Hearts at Celtic Park on Sunday. The match is likely to play second fiddle to the more important matter of the day: the lifting of the league trophy.
However, just like every league match, there are still three points on the line for the winning team. After last weekend’s defeat at Ibrox, the Hoops will want to get back to winning ways ahead of the Scottish Cup final.
The Jambos are our opponents then too so we could see some pretty unrecognizable sides this weekend.
Predicted team
It’s incredibly difficult to predict the side for this encounter because it all hinges on Neil Lennon’s thinking.
Don’t be surprised to see Dorus De Vries start the match in goals. Anthony Ralston may fill in at right-back with Jeremy Toljan in at left-back after coming on at Ibrox last weekend. Filip Benkovic should be one of the centre-backs, perhaps alongside his compatriot Jozo Simunovic.
Callum McGregor is unlikely to be risked so the midfield duo may be Olivier Ntcham and Nir Bitton.
Oli Burke, Ewan Henderson and Scott Sinclair could make up the three in front of them while Mikey Johnstone may be the best option up front.
Full predicted Celtic team: De Vries, Ralston, Benkovic, Simunovic, Toljan, Ntcham, Bitton, Burke, Henderson, Sinclair, Johnstone
