Celtic line-up vs Kilmarnock revealed as Jonjoe Kenny decision made amid wholesale changes

Neil Lennon has named his Celtic line-up for the visit of Kilmarnock.

The Parkhead boss has made wholesale changes from the disappointing 2-1 defeat to St Mirren at the weekend as Scott Brown, Albian Ajeti and Ryan Christie return to the side.

And Jonjoe Kenny has been thrown straight into the starting XI after signing from Everton on Deadline Day.

The right-back will make his debut against the Ayrshire side as Celtic look to get back to winning ways in tonight's Premiership clash.

Scott Bain starts in goals with a back four of Greg Taylor, Kris Ajer, Stephen Welsh, who replaces Shane Duffy, and Kenny.

Lennon has opted for a midfield of Callum McGregor, David Turnbull, Christie and Brown as Ismaila Soro drops to the bench.

Odsonne Edouard starts up top with Albian Ajeti as Leigh Griffiths is left out after Lennon criticised the striker as he was subbed at half time against the Paisley side.

Celtic starting XI: Bain, Taylor, Kenny, Ajer, Welsh, Brown, McGregor, Christie, Turnbull, Ajeti, Edouard.

Subs: Barkas, Duffy, Soro, Griffiths, Klimala, Rogic, Johnston, Elyounoussi, Laxalt.
