John Kennedy has revealed Kris Ajer, James Forrest and Albian Ajeti will be fit for Celtic's upcoming game against Rangers.
The trio missed the Hoops' 1-1 draw against Aberdeen as Leigh Griffiths rescued a late point in stoppage time for the visitors after Lewis Ferguson's opener.
Forrest missed the weekend's Scottish Cup defeat to the Light Blues through injury, while Ajer picked up a shoulder problem and was left out of tonight's Premiership clash, as a result.
Ajeti was also omitted as his fitness issues continue.
But Kennedy confirmed in his post-match press conference that the three players would be available for their visit to Ibrox in ten days' time.
The Parkhead interim boss explained Ajer's absence ahead of kick-off as Nir Bitton replaced the Norwegian in defence.
He told BBC Sportsound: "He's ok. He hurt his shoulder during the game and managed to get through it.
"For a couple of days, he was a little tender so no need to risk him tonight.
"He's played loads of games this season as well so it gives us a chance to bring Bitton into the team."
Kennedy was delighted for Griffiths who came off the bench to net a last gasp equaliser for his side.
And the Celtic caretaker hopes he can kick on the rest of the way and get himself in Steve Clarke's squad for the Euros.
He said: "It's good for Leigh to get that goal.
"It was a great ball from Moi and a good header to finish it from Leigh.
"He has put himself in contention to start games - he's goal hungry as always.
"Leigh is training well.
"Can he make the Euros squad? It comes down to form and how Steve sees it.
"He has a few strikers to choose from now but he has just has to put himself in contention.
"That goal is what Leigh is all about - getting half a yard in the penalty box and finishing.”
"Leigh is fit. He trains every day. He hasn't had many starts but he's fit.
"That will be Steve's decision and he has added extra strikers like Che Adams.
"So Steve does have a decision to make but all Leigh can do is make himself available.
"Leigh is up there with Scotland's best goalscorers.
"He had the issue when we came back for pre-season and his fitness wasn't what it should have been.
"That took a bit of time for him to get going but I have had no issues with Leigh in terms of how he works.
"We don't always play with two strikers, so that doesn't always help him.
"But Leigh is what he is. He is a great individual for us and when we need a goal, he gets you it.
"We want him fit and well, and in contention to start games, and that is where he is.
"The Euros does help us in terms of personal motivation - but there is always something to play for at Celtic.”
