Brendan Rodgers' Celtic starting XI for Aberdeen away clash announced

Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic team to take on Aberdeen this afternoon.

Barry Robson's side welcome the Scottish champions at Pittodrie this lunchtime on matchday two of the Premiership season.

Celtic got their season underway with a comfortable 4-2 win over Ross County on home soil. Aberdeen were held to a 0-0 stalemate at Livingston.

The Dons will be looking to make a statement as they aim to showcase why they're the favourites to go on and secure third place in the league this season.

They've named a strong line-up for the game, with Miovski, Duk, Clarkson and Polvara all involved. 

Celtic go again with David Turnbull in midfield and Reo Hatate on the bench.

ABERDEEN XI: Roos, Devlin, MacKenzie, Shinnie, Miovski, Clarkson, Duk, Morris, Polvara, Duncan, Rubezic.

Subs: Ritchie, Doohan, Barron, Sokler, Besuijen, Stewart, Milne, Dadia, Bavidge.

CELTIC XI: Hart, Ralston, Carter-Vickers, Nawrocki, Taylor, McGregor, O'Riley, Turnbull, Abada, Maeda, Kyogo.

Subs: Bain, Haksabanovic, Yang, Holm, Tomoki, Bernabei, Hatate, Forrest, Welsh.
