Ange Postecoglou faces a major call over Celtic 's attacking options with a lengthy injury list going into the clash with Motherwell.
Kyogo Furuhashi and Albian Ajeti are in the Lennoxtown treatment room after picking up hamstring knocks in the Europa League win over Real Betis.
Winger Jota is also sidelined, with summer arrival Giorgos Giakoumakis still two or three weeks away from full fitness.
The Australian could turn to the Celtic youngsters with both Owen Moffat and Joey Dawson among surprise absentees for the B team's win over East Stirling.
Dawson was signed from Scunthorpe United on a three-year deal in the summer and has been a regular playing for the Hoops Colts in the Lowland League.
But Moffat has been the main man for the second string and might be preferred for a step up if called upon.
