A young Celtic side has been named to take the field vs Sturm Graz with Emilio Izaguirre, Biton and Johansen the only regular players to start.

Emilio of course is behind Kieran Tierney but brings years of experience with him and it will be called upon in an untested back line.

Janko has the opportunity to nail down right back and with a strong performance could yet save the club the need to purchase in that position.

Fisher is on the bench and he too may get his chance to show his credentials there also.

It will be very interesting to see how Christie, Allan and Henderson play given that there is a lot of expectation from fans of these young Bhoys.

Ciftci will be looking to keep his name in front of the Gaffers nose by scoring again.

Johansen whilst experienced must produce between now and the end of the preseason if he is to feature in the Rodgers Revolution.

The game is live on Celtic TV.

CELTIC (4-2-3-1) Bailly; Janko, O’Connell, McCart, Izaguirre; Johansen, Bitton; Christie, Allan, Henderson; Ciftci.
Subs: Gordon, Ralston, Sviatchenko, Ajer, Tierney, McGregor, Roberts, Lindsay, Armstrong, Griffiths, Brown, Fisher, Fasan.
