Celtic squad revealed as James Forrest set for long awaited moment

Fit-again James Forrest is set to make his first Celtic start since September against Falkirk.

The Scottish Cup holders begin their defence of the trophy against the League 1 leaders at Parkhead on Saturday evening.

Interim Celtic boss John Kennedy has intimated he will assess stars - such as Odsonne Edouard - who returned from international duty only late in the week.

He did, however, report a clean bill of health on all players reporting back from camps with their respective nations.

Long-term absentee Christopher Jullien remains out with a knee issue.

Falkirk 's Mark Durnan is suspended for the trip to Parkhead.
