The Hoops go into this one with a defensive headache and without a goal or win in their last two days but recent form goes out the window on derby day in Glasgow.
Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic starting team to face Rangers with Nat Phillips NOT in the squad.
Gustaf Lagerbiekle - another signing just in the door - and fringe man Liam Scales who spent last season on loan at Aberdeen have been given the nod once again at the heart of the defence with Yuki Kobayashi the back up on the bench. Fellow new recruit Luis Palma has been named as a susbstitue after joining Phillips in training with his new team-mates earlier this week.
“Obviously Michael’s been in and looking to establish his way of working on the group, having come in last season, and they have made a number of changes as well. “So there’s a change, of course. You then add injuries to that and all of a sudden the make-up of the group looks slightly different But in terms of style, our style will always remain the same.
