MARTIN O’NEILL will have his final fling as Celtic interim boss against Dundee at Parkhead this evening.
The departing gaffer names an unchanged side from the one that overcame Hibs 2-1 at Easter Road at the weekend.
Kieran Tierney again starts on the substitutes’ bench with on-loan Marcelo Saracchi getting the nod at left-back.
TEAM: Schmeichel; Donovan, Trusty, Scales, Tierney; Engels, McGregor, Hatate; McCowan, Maeda and Yang. Sub: Sinisalo, Nygren, Balikwisha, Tounekti, Kenny, Bernardo, Murray, Ralston and Tierney.
Earlier today, we asked how much could you remember about past associations with the Tayside club in CQN’s fun five-minute quiz to test your knowledge.
Now we repeat those questions and provide the answers.
