Brendan Rodgers unsurprisingly has named an unchanged side from the team that defeated Kilmarnock 4-0 at Celtic Park last weekend.
The Champions are at Easter Road this afternoon for the first away match of the season and the Celtic manager is more than happy to go same-again for this game at a ground where he hasn’t always had the happiest of outcomes.
The Celtic team is Schmeichel; A.Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor; McGregor (c), O’Riley, Hatate; Forrest, Kuhn and Kyogo. Subs for Celtic are Sinisalo, Yang, Holm, Tomokim Bernardo, Maeda, Ralston, Welsh, M.Johnston.
The Hibs team is Bursk, Miller, Ekpiteta, O’Hora, Obita, Newell, Levitt, Campbell, Boyle, Kuharevich and Molotnikov.. Subs for Hibs are: Smith, Vente, Cadden, Amos, McKirdy, Bowie, Moriah-Welsh, Megwa, Rocky.
Hibs lost 3-0 away to St Mirren last weekend and go into today’s game on zero points. Hibs are at Celtic Park next weekend, this time in the League Cup.
Kick-off is at 12.30pm and the game is live on Sky Sports Main Event (401) and also on Celtic TV for subscribers outside of Britain and Ireland.
