Ahead of Celtic’s League Cup quarter-final tie against Dundee, 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 will be choosing the starting XI, as well as predicting how the team will 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.
A 5-0 win over Kilmarnock back in August set-up this Wednesday’s tie between Neil McCann’s Dundee and Brendan Rodgers’ Hoops, who have yet to lose a domestic game in the last 55 outings.
The last time the sides met was back in March of last season, where goals from Simunovic and Armstrong were enough to secure a 2-1 win for the Hoops despite a stunning finish from Faissal El Bakhtaoui.
To understand our prediction, you also need to see the latest team news ahead of the game. Here is our predicted eleven in a 4-3-3 formation for Wednesday’s Cup tie.
