Only real selection decision is between Maeda, Forrest and Kuhn. I’m expecting Maeda to start on left so between the other two for the right wing berth.
A belter of a day in Glasgow. We may be an Irish club but this is almost like a home game today with the Fenians out in our droves.

How has Scales played this year?
Well in first half of the season but distinctly average since then. I think the huns will target that Scales/Taylor side with long diagonals & then Tavernier pushing forward on the side too. At least Maeda will provide lots of cover.
But Celtic have most, if not all, of their first choice players available & the huns are missing a few. It’s also very hot & benches will be needed, & their bench looks light. Celtic have been getting a tune out of Bernardo, Idah etc off the bench.
I said on another thread Celtic SHOULD have too much for them as the team has come into form & the likes of CCV, Hatate & McGregor are fit again. A full stadium behind the team too. But you never know in these games…it just takes a penalty travesty, a professional foul & red or some obscene piece of bad luck to change the course of the game.
Can you be booked for persistent fouling in association football?
Huns leaving Scales on the ball & man marking elsewhere. Celtic have started fairly well but they had one diagonal where Sterling caused Taylor bother at the back post.
Yes. When refs do that annoying pointing at different areas of the pitch thing to signify it’s for persistent fouling.
Some shooting chance that for O’Riley. You have to score there really.
Real smell of a rangers smash and grab odd this
Scales has been terrible on the ball.
He’s having a mare .

Some amount of space on edge of rangers box once Celtic beat the press. Massive gaps between rangers centre backs and midfield
Lovely goal with plenty of interplay & ROTATIONS down the right involving 4 players.
Celtic have been playing some decent stuff & creating chances WHEN they break through the initial press. Trouble is Scales, being left on the ball, has had awful trouble.
Oooowwwwnnnnn ggggooooaaaalllllll
