Celtic line-up predicted vs Sparta Prague as Neil Lennon faces Christopher Jullien call

Christopher Jullien has provided Celtic with a timely boost as the defender is set to return from injury for tonight's Europa League clash against Sparta Prague.

The Frenchman has been on the sidelines with a back problems with Neil Lennon's side shipping goals in his absence.

But the centre-half has travelled with the squad to the Czech Republic and could be thrown into the starting XI.

Celtic have nothing to lose with their European knockout prospects hanging in the balance and three points is a must so it would be no surprise for Jullien to see some action.

Scott Bain will keep his place in goals with Kris Ajer, Jeremie Frimpong and Diego Laxalt making up the back four.

Lennon should stick to his 4-2-3-1 formation with Callum McGregor and Scott Brown shielding the backline.

And there's no need to change the trio of Ryan Christie, Tom Rogic and Moi Elyounoussi ahead of them either.

Odsonne Edouard was bright when he climbed off the bench against Hibs, scoring from the penalty spot in the 2-2 draw at Easter Road.

And the striker should get the nod over Albian Ajeti in a must win game fot the Parkhead club.

Predicted Celtic XI: Bain, Frimpong, Jullien, Ajer, Laxalt, McGregor, Brown, Christie, Rogic, Elyounoussi, Edouard.
