Brendan Rodgers has selected his Celtic line-up to take on St Mirren at Parkhead.
The league leaders are aiming to get back to winning ways after a goalless draw with Hibs at the weekend.
And they come up against high-flying St Mirren who sit third in the league under Stephen Robinson this season.
CELTIC XI: Hart, Johnston, Phillips, Scales, Taylor, McGregor, O’Riley, Turnbull, Forrest, Palma, Kyogo
SUBS: Bain, Yang, Holm, Nawrocki, Oh, Iwata, Bernabei, Maeda, Ralston
ST MIRREN XI: Hemming, Fraser, Gogic, Taylor, Strain, Boyd-Munce, O’Hara, Tanser, Kiltie, Olusanya, McMenamin
SUBS: Urminsky, Bolton, Dunne, Small, Flynn, Jamieson, Mandron, Grieve, Nahmani
It comes as the Green Brigade hit back at the Celtic board, accusing them of ‘shaming’ the club.
In a strongly-worded statement, the supporters’ group responded to Celtic’s decision to suspend their season tickets.
Their statement reads: “In recent weeks, Celtic supporters have proudly stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people, while the PLC board adopted a position closer to the far-right British Government, with similar attempts to censor and sanction Palestinian solidarity. As the death toll in Gaza nears 10,000, including almost 4,000 children – the PLC board has shamed Celtic Football Club with their conduct.
“It is undeniable that the sanctions imposed against those affiliated with the Green Brigade are a result of the group’s unapologetic solidarity with Palestine. The sanctions applied, most notably collective bans, are evidently unfair; bereft of policy, process and communication with individuals wrongfully being punished before receiving any allegation, any evidence or any right of defence.
“While we expect any fair-minded person will see through the flimsy litany of allegations there are some which we would like to address.
