Fixture: Motherwell vs Celtic
Competition: Scottish Premiership
Kick-off: 12:15 (UK time)
Celtic have officially named their starting line-up and substitutes to lock horns with Motherwell at Fir Park in a Scottish Premiership fixture this afternoon.
The Bhoys are in command of the league, sitting at the top of the table, and can increase their lead over second placed Hearts to eleven points, while still boasting two games in hand.
Celtic face a Motherwell side sitting in sixth spot and who lost 3-0 on their last outing, away at Hearts. To get the job done at Fir Park, Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers picks Kolo Toure in the heart of defence, with the former Liverpool man partnering Jozo Simunovic. Scott Brown captains the Bhoys, while Tom Rogic and Stuart Armstrong are also handed starts. Patrick Roberts and James Forrest will be looking to supply Moussa Dembele.
On the bench, Rodgers can turn to Ryan Christie or Gary Mackay-Steven as attacking options, while Nir Bitton is also amongst the substitutes. There is no Erik Sviatchenko or Leigh Griffiths in the squad.
Celtic Team vs Motherwell
Gordon, Lustig, Simunovic, Toure, Izaguirre, Brown (c), Rogic, Armstrong, Roberts, Forrest, Dembele
