Brendan Rodgers names Celtic starting line-up to face Hibs in Scottish Premiership

Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic starting line-up to face Hibs.

The reigning Scottish Premiership champions travel to Easter Road this afternoon on league duty before facing David Gray's side again in the Premier Sports Cup next weekend at Parkhead.

Celtic kicked-off their season in style last Sunday with a 4-0 win over Kilmarnock on Flag Day.

Whereas, Gray's side fell to a 3-0 defeat against St Mirren in Paisley.

Rodgers has selected an unchanged side from the triumph over Kilmarnock.

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

Callum McGregor anchors the midfield alongside Matt O'Riley and Reo Hatate with James Forrest, Nico Kuhn and Kyogo Furuhashi as the front three.
