Brendan Rodgers’ side will return to domestic action at the weekend against Motherwell following the international break.
Celtic will be looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the domestic season at Paradise on Saturday and at least maintain their four point gap to title challengers Aberdeen.
October will be a crucial month for the Hoops with a Champions League clash with Borussia Monchengladbach at home before the League Cup semi-final and back-to-back away games against Ross County and Aberdeen.
Motherwell have won just one of their last eight games and currently sit in six place in the league table.
The two sides met back in August in the last-16 of the League Cup as Celtic put five past Mark McGhee’s side.

Motherwell
Joe Chalmers will have a groin operation next week and will be out for six weeks, but midfielder Chris Cadden has recovered from a hamstring injury and could feature.
