Partick Thistle v Celtic

Either Mackay-Steven or Armstrong will probably start instead of the injured Commons. Possible that both will be selected if Forrest drops out but more likely Stokes will be restored. Matthews should replace Lustig who’s also injured.

This game is live on one of the Sky Sports channels, with a 7.45pm kick-off.

I can exclusively reveal that both Armstrong and Mackay-Steven will be starting tonight for their Celtic debuts.

Celtic Team:
Gordon;
Matthews, Denayer, van Dijk, Izaguirre;
Brown, Bitton;
Mackay-Steven, Johansen, Armstrong;
Guidetti.

Subs: Zaluska, Fisher, Ambrose, Scepovic, Stokes, McGregor, Henderson.

Commons and Lustig out as expected and Griffiths isn’t being risked after picking up a minor knock in training yesterday.

GMS.

Ah lovely

GMS inside a minute

Yeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssss.

Mackay-Steven scores after 38 seconds.

Armstrong hasn’t touched the ball yet. :mad:

Rousing rendition of the symphony! :clap:

That’s a really poor miss from Armstrong with that corner. Should be putting those away from the corner flag.

A real derby feel to this so far

Armstrong makes it 2

Super goal. Armstrong this time.

Armstrong!!

I wish Johansen could select the correct pass.

The two new bhoys have had impressive debuts, we have really good options in the attacking areas now.

Good finish by Johansen to make it 3-0. He’d literally given it away every time he got on the ball up to that point in the second half.

Bitton’s positioning and screening very good there again. His header from just inside the Celtic half set Johansen free.

Your constant berating of Johansen is unfair, he’s had a solid game tonight.

Smashing ball there from Johansen to find Guidetti.

Henderson for Johansen.

Fisher for Matthews.

I think the two new bhoys along with Bitton have been our best players tonight.

McGregor for Mackay-Steven.
