Ange Postecoglou names Celtic line-up to face Kilmarnock

Ange Postecoglou has named his side to face Kilmarnock at Rugby Park.

Stars Cameron Carter Vickers and Jota have been left out of the squad entirely with Japanese star Yuki Kobayashi and Sead Haksabanovic stepping in.

The Hoops are in rich form going into the match 12 points clear in the Premiership after their hard-fought victory over Rangers last weekend.

Kilmarnock remain ensconced in a relegation battle at the other end of the table and sit just one point ahead of bottom side Ross County.

Derek McInnes will hope the plastic pitch in Ayrshire can be some sort of leveller but Celtic have a good record under Postecoglou and look unlikely to be fazed on current form. 

Celtic team: Hart, Johnston, Kobayashi, Starfelt, Taylor, McGregor, Iwata, O'Riley, Maeda, Kyogo, Haksabanovic.

Subs: Bain, Mooy, Turnbull, Oh, Bernabei, Summers, Ralston, Welsh, Vata.
