Positive signs from Celtic training footage at Lennoxtown ahead of St Mirren test.
In terms of Scottish Cup 5th Round challenges, Celtic’s trip to St Mirren tomorrow presents a challenge.
The Scottish Premiership matches were mostly against lower-division opponents, but the Buddies are confident in their chances, especially after two consecutive league victories.
We know Celtic can play confidently in Paisley. Last month, Brendan Rodgers’ Bhoys won 3-0 at the same location.
What kind of performance we may expect from the cup holders on Sunday is a question, given their poor performances away to Aberdeen and Hibernian in the previous week.
Celtic squad returning to full strength
Positively, the club is showing signs of strength in its squad.
The Celtic media team shared film from Lennoxtown training earlier today, revealing that Hyeongyu Oh and Hyunjun Yang have returned to the training setup and will be in contention tomorrow.
The South Korean duo only exited the Asian Cup on Tuesday, but they have made a quick trip to Scotland to try to play tomorrow.
It is also heartening to see Stephen Welsh back in full training after an injury scare against Hibs.
Rodgers stated at Easter Road that the defender felt his hamstring, prompting his second-half substitution, but it appears he has dismissed any concerns.
Greg Taylor and Cameron Carter-Vickers are also preparing to return, although they are unlikely to play this weekend.
Taylor should return to action against Kilmarnock next weekend, while the United States international is back on the training pitch, nearing the finish of his recuperation.
Brendan Rodgers discusses Adam Idah’s first week at Celtic and highlights his most remarkable qualities.
