CONFIRMED: CHRISTIE, ROGIC RETURN

RYAN CHRISTIE and Tom Rogic return to the Celtic midfield for today’s visit of Livingston as Neil Lennon’s only changes from the line-up that started in the 2-0 win over Motherwell before the international break.

Nowefian international left-sided raider Mohamed Elyounoussi is ruled out through injury and French ace Olivier Ntcham, the hero of Rome, drops to the substitutes’ bench. As anticipated, Leigh Griffiths returns on stand-by duty.

Gary Holt’s Livi arrive at Parkhead as the only team to have inflicted a domestic defeat on the champions this season after last month’s 2-0 setback in West Lothian.

The Hoops will be looking for revenge and three crucial points as they aim to maintain their place at the Premiership pinnacle in their quest for nine in a row.

TEAM: Forster; Frimpong, Jullien, Ajer, Hayes; Brown, McGregor; Forrest, Christie, Rogic; Edouard. Subs: Gordon, Taylor, Bitton, Griffiths, Bauer, Morgan, Ntcham
