Celtic play their 17th game of the Scottish Premiership season tonight, looking to make it 48 points from 51 available at the top of the table.

It’s almost guaranteed to be a strong team regardless, with a dangerous bench ready to come into the match and make an impact.

In attack is where the only change from the weekend victory may come with Liel Abada coming in to play alongside Jota and Kyogo Furuhashi, in place of Daizen Maeda.
