Manager Ange Postecoglou has named his Celtic team vs Alloa in the Scottish Cup this evening, per the official club website.
The full match squad is as follows:
Starting XI – Hart, Ralston, Welsh, Starfelt, Scales, McGregor, Guchi, Abada, Rogic, Maeda, Giakoumakis.
Substitutes – Bain, Jullien, Taylor, Bitton, McCarthy, Jota, Hatate, Forrest, Juranovic.
Postecoglou has named a pretty strong eleven for the encounter, but there is rotation from the game against Hibernian on Monday night.
Notably, Yosuke Ideguchi makes his first start, with Giorgos Giakoumakis also coming into the starting eleven.
International Bhoys Tom Rogic and Daizen Maeda also make an appearance before jetting off around the world.
With Liam Scales, Stephen Welsh and Anthony Ralston also coming into the defensive line, there’s a really fresh look to the team.
