Although it might seem a bit extreme, Wilcard can start with the XI and it works with the players he has at his disposal.
Given that Celtic plays once a week on average, it seems foolish for Brendan Rodgers to become a tinkerman.
But with Liel Abada going, Yang suspended, and Luis Palma hurt, that might be necessary. Is this a chance to add Oh and Idah to the same squad and place Yogo in a more senior role? It very well may be.Normally a banker to start, Daizen Maeda now has the opportunity to adjust in both midfield and attack thanks to Callum McGregor’s absence. Gustaf Lagerbielke could potentially play in a back three with you.
Hyun-jun is suspended by the holders, as their petition to have his red card against Hearts overturned was denied. Important captain McGregor is also sidelined due to an Achilles ailment, and defender Maik Nawrocki is ruled out due to a hamstring issue. James Penrice and Scott Pittman are still absent, while Livi captain Michael Devlin is unlikely to play after being pushed off last week; however, Cristian Montano and Shaun Donnellan intend to return.
