Celtic squad revealed for Ross County as Kyogo and Giakoumakis leave Ange Postecoglou with major striker call

Celtic are looking to take another major step towards the Premiership title on Sunday but it doesn't get much tougher than a trip to Dingwall this season.

The league leaders are within touching distance and will be hoping to extend their gap to six points again after Rangers took care of Motherwell.

County though are flying high and haven't lost at home since Celtic 's narrow win back in December.

It's all about bouncing back for the Hoops after their Hampden heartbreak and there is expected to be at least one change from the side that lost the derby.

Giorgos Giakoumakis is back after he was a big miss at the national stadium while Kyogo will also be hoping for a first start of 2022.

Josip Juranovic is out meaning a likely return for Anthony Ralston to the starting XI.

But other than that it's a clean bill of health for Ange Postecoglou as his team vie to get the title over the line.

Predicted Celtic lineup

The choice between Kyogo and Giakoumakis could go either way but it may be the Japanese star's long awaited turn for a crack at the whip.

In midfield, Matt O'Riley or David Turnbull could come back in - Callum McGregor looks like the only assured starter with the remaining two spots going to any two of four.
