Celtic squad revealed as Ryan Christie returns for stern St Johnstone test

Ryan Christie returns to the Celtic squad after he missed the Europa League defeat to Copenhagen on Thursday.

The attacking midfielder watched from the stands in horror as his teammates slumped to a 3-1 defeat in a game they never truly got going.

Neil Lennon will hope the midfielder can add the spark that can allow his side to bounce back from the disappointment of the unexpected exit to help secure passage to the semi-finals of the Scottish Cup .

They won't get it all their own way against St Johnstone who are a side transformed of late and are unbeaten in six, including a deserved draw against Rangers on Sunday.

Midfielder Olivier Ntcham remains out with a calf problem while Hatem Abd Elhamed is working his way back from a groin injury.

Young winger Mikey Johnston remains out with a longer term knee injury.
