Ahead of Celtic’s away fixture against St. Johnstone on Saturday, 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.
Despite a 2-1 loss to Bayern Munich midweek in the Champions League group stages, the Hoops will not feel disheartened given how well they played.
Rodgers’ side will look to maintain their already impressive domestic unbeaten run which stands at a superb 62 games, with St. Johnstone being their last opponents before the international break returns.
To understand our prediction, you also need to see the latest team news ahead of the game. Here is our predicted eleven in a 4-2-3-1 formation for Saturday’s game.
