Neil Lennon is set to field a very unfamiliar Celtic team on Sunday against Hearts with a number of regular stars either out or doubts for our final Scottish Premiership match of the season, as reported by The Scottish Sun.

The paper say Kieran Tierney, James Forrest, Jonny Hayes and Odsonne Edouard are all out of the trophy day clash, rested ahead of next week’s mammoth Scottish Cup Final against the same opposition.

Mikael Lustig is also a doubt after limping off against Rangers in our last match, according to the report.

Meanwhile, The Daily Record report that Scott Brown is sweating on a foot injury that could keep him out of this weekend’s match and the showpiece final at Hampden.

He’s had a scan on a broken toe that has meant him playing through pain in recent weeks and although he is obviously desperate to play in our potential ‘treble treble’ final is now a doubt.

This weekend’s match may mean nothing but hopefully most of these players can recover before the final, or our chances of completing another clean sweep could take a massive hit.
