Celtic have officially named their starting line-up and substitutes to lock horns with Derek McInnes' Aberdeen side at Pittodrie this afternoon.

Brendan Rodgers' side hold a slender one-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table and will want no slip ups ahead of the weekend's Glasgow derby against second placed Rangers




Rodgers picks Craig Gordon in goal, while Celtic's full-backs for the afternoon are Mikael Lustig and Emilio Izaguirre. In the centre of defence, the Bhoys have Dedryck Boyata and Filip Benkovic.

Further up the pitch, Scott Brown skippers the side and is joined in midfield by Tom Rogic and Callum McGregor. Up top, James Forrest and Scott Sinclair support Ryan Christie.

Celtic have options on the bench to make changes, including Odsonne Edouard and Jonny Hayes.
