THREE players will make their first starts for Celtic in the Premier Sports League Cup encounter with Ross County in Dingwall tonight.
Swiss keeper Benji Siegrist, Argentinian left-back Alexandro Bernabei and Australian midfielder Aaron Mooy are all in for the kick-off against Malky Mackay’s Highlanders in the game which must be decided this evening before the quarter-final draw immediately after the full-time whistle.
BEST FEET FORWARD…Aaron Mooy tussles with a Dundee United defender during the 9-0 romp.
ALEXANDRO THE FIRST…left-back Bernabei makes his history as the first Argentine to play for Celtic.
Overall, Ange Postecoglou has made NINE changes to the side which defeated Dundee United 9-0 at the weekend.
Only captain Callum McGregor and Liel Abada, who fired in a blistering second-half hat-trick in the rout against United, retain their places.
Keeper Joe Hart, who was injured after only two minutes at Tannadice, has a welcome night off with Scott Bain as back-up to Siegrist.
TEAM: Siegrist; Ralston, Jenz, Welsh, Bernabei; Turnbull, McGregor, Mooy; Abada, Giakoumakis, Maeda. Subs: Bain, Juranovic, Starfelt, Haksabanovic, McCarthy, Jota, Hatate, Forrest, Kyogo.
