Celtic squad revealed for Kilmarnock clash as Hoops wait on Scott Brown

Celtic will wait to see if Scott Brown is fit enough to play in Sunday's Premiership clash with Kilmarnock.

The veteran midfielder came off with a calf injury in the second half of Celtic's 1-1 Europa League draw with FC Copenhagen in Denmark on Thursday and will be assessed.

Lennon hopes Leigh Griffiths and Greg Taylor will return after they missed the European game with a knock and hamstring complaint respectively while Hatem Abd Elhamed (groin) and forward Mikey Johnston (knee) remain out.

Rory McKenzie is a doubt for Kilmarnock.

The forward suffered a knock to the leg during last Sunday's defeat to Hibernian and missed out as Killie were dumped out of the William Hill Scottish Cup in a 4-3 extra-time thriller with Aberdeen.

Forward Harry Bunn will definitely be absent again with a calf complaint while midfielders Innes Cameron and Adam Frizzell are still confined to the treatment room with knee injuries.
