Predicted XI: Celtic v Motherwell (H)

Ahead of Celtic’s League Cup tie against Motherwell, we at Read Celtic will role-play (not that kind) and predict the starting XI.

We will be playing the role of Brendan Rodgers, and choosing the starting XI and how the team are expected to line-up on the pitch.

It also includes a bit of insight into what we expect from each player, and what they can do to make the difference.

After a 2-1 victory over Hearts at Tynecastle on the opening weekend of the league campaign, Celtic will turn their attention to the League Cup.

The Steelmen will make the trip to Paradise following their 2-1 win over Kilmarnock at the weekend, with a place in the quarter-finals at stake.

Celtic will go into the game confident due to their squad depth over Mark McGhee’s side and look to continue their winning run.

Here’s our predicted XI for Wednesday evening’s game against Motherwell.
