Brendan Rodgers names Celtic side to face Hibs in Premier Sports Cup

Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic side to face Hibernian in the Premier Sports Cup.

The two clubs face off again just one week after meeting in the Scottish Premiership at Easter Road.

Celtic were 2-0 winners in the capital last time out and now host Hibs in cup duty this afternoon.

Rodgers has made one change from his side last weekend with Daizen Maeda replacing Kyogo Furuhashi. There is no sign of Kyogo in the matchday squad but Adam Idah is on the bench.

Kasper Schmeichel starts in goal with Alistair Johnston, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Liam Scales and Greg Taylor in defence.

Callum McGregor, Matt O'Riley and Reo Hatate are in midfield with James Forrest, Nicolas Kuhn and Maeda up front.
