🗞️ Team News: Celtic

The Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou has no fitness worries at all before this clash with a completely injury-free squad available to choose from.

In our view, The Bhoys look set to go for a 4-3-3 formation for this game, utilising Joe Hart, Josip Juranovic, C. Carter-Vickers, Stephen Welsh, Greg Taylor, Reo Hatate, Callum McGregor, Matthew O'Riley, Jota, Daizen Maeda and Kyogo Furuhashi.

📋 Team News: Aberdeen

From a largely healthy group of players, there’s just the lone fitness issue for the Aberdeen boss Jim Goodwin to be concerned about. Connor Barron (Knee Injury) won’t be in action.

We are inclined to think that The Dons appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 system by sending out Kelle Roos, Jayden Richardson, Anthony Stewart, Hayden Coulson, Matthew Kennedy, Ross McCrorie, Ylber Ramadani, Dante Polvara, Vicente Besuijen, Jonathan Hayes and Bojan Miovski.

💡 Prediction

In this game, Aberdeen have the ability to break down this Celtic outfit, but that might not be as many as they’ll concede.

We reckon that it will be a very close game with a 2-1 advantage for Celtic at full-time. Could easily see this go either way.
