Predicted XI: Celtic v Livingston (H)

The Hoops are preparing for their third league game in a week as they take on Livingston at Celtic Park this Saturday.

Neil Lennon’s side edged out as 2-1 winners against St. Mirren in a rather uninspiring night in Paisley on Wednesday. The Buddies took the lead inside three minutes, though headers from Shane Duffy and James Forrest completed the comeback.

The boss made four changes to the side who battered Ross County 5-0, a decision that may have affected the overall performance.

Though rotation is necessary, given the champions have four games to play within a fortnight this month.

Livi are next up, and they’re not in very good shape. They’ve won one of their opening seven league games, placing them 11th in the table and level on points with Motherwell.

Gary Holt’s men suffered a disappointing 2-1 home defeat to Hamilton Accies last weekend.

Celtic will be glad this match isn’t on Livi’s astroturf pitch; their recent record there isn’t exactly clinical.

Lennon is likely to rotate once more, bringing certain players back into the starting XI while benching others who didn’t impress on Wednesday.

Here is how we think the Hoops will lineup.
