Celtic team v St Mirren predicted as Ange Postecoglou faces striker rotation decision

After another success in Europe, Celtic return to league action this weekend.

Ange Postecoglou 's men have been in fine form since beginning their Premiership campaign with a defeat to Hearts.

They've since battered Dundee and then gained some revenge on the Jambos in the Premier Sports Cup.

St Mirren are the visitors this weekend, although manager Jim Goodwin won't be joining them after testing positive for Covid.

After the midweek win over AZ Alkmaar, the only real dilemma for Postecolgou is whether or not to change a winning team.

A front three of James Forrest, Kyogo Furuhashi and Odsonne Edouard got the job done against Hearts but Liel Abada came in for the Frenchman against the Dutch side in midweek.

Whether the Aussie coach opts to rotate at least one of his attacking options remains to be seen, but Furuhashi is pretty much undroppable right now with six goals in six games.

The rest of the team seems to be picking itself as well with the Hoops rolling along nicely after a difficult start.

Predicted Celtic XI: Hart, Ralston, Welsh, Starfelt, Taylor, McGregor, Turnbull, Rogic, Forrest, Furuhashi, Edouard.
