With Scottish League Cup success over Rangers behind us, Celtic’s preparations continue for Thursday evening’s Europa League dead rubber against CRF Cluj.
Given we have already qualified for the next round of the competition and have secured our progression from Group E, there’s a line of thought that manager Neil Lennon will rotate the pack and give a well earnt rest to some key players given the festive fixture list and our small advantage at the top of the Premiership table.
For those thinking along those lines, on Wednesday morning there were strong claims that our gaffer would do just that and fans could expect significant changes to the starting lineup for the game.
Craig Gordon
Moritz Bauer, Nir Bitton, Kristoffer Ajer and Greg Taylor
Olivier Ntcham and Scott Robertson
Marian Shved, Tom Rogic and Mikey Johnston
Leigh Griffiths
Whether that ‘leak’ proves to be true or not or whether there’s even a denial from the club just to keep life interesting, there can’t be many who won’t think it’s close enough as we look to the bigger picture.
