Manager Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic team vs Ross County for today’s Scottish Premiership match in Dingwall.
The full squad is as follows:
Starting XI – Hart, Ralston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor, McGregor, Bernardo, Turnbull, Yang, Maeda, Oh.
Substitutes – Bain, Johnston, Phillips, Palma, Kyogo, Holm, Tomoki, O’Riley, Forrest
Celtic have the chance to move eight points clear of second-placed Rangers this afternoon, with the Ibrox side not on league duty over the weekend.
The manager has made six changes to the side that beat St Mirren on Wednesday night with Oh, Yang, Maeda, Bernardo, Ralston and Carter-Vickers all coming into the eleven.
It’s the biggest rotation seen in the team so far this season with the manager clearly keeping an eye on Tuesday night’s test away to Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.

Instant verdict on Celtic team vs Ross County
Rodgers has still managed to name a strong eleven despite the number of changes. Carter-Vickers and Maeda were both rested mid-week and you would consider them part of the first-pick side.
Matt O’Riley and Kyogo Furuhashi have both put so much into the campaign and it’ll be a big test for the team to replace the many goals they’ve scored between them to this point. They’re at least on the bench if needed in the second half.
This afternoon’s game will tell us a lot about the true depth of the Celtic squad. Players such as Anthony Ralston, David Turnbull, Hyunjun Yang and Hyeongyu Oh must produce big performances or it could prove to be a very difficult day.
