CELTIC will be without star man Jota for this weekend's game against Hibs.
The Portuguese winger missed the midweek Champions League tie with RB Leipzig, which finished 2-0 to the German outfit.
He started last Saturday's match at St Johnstone, but was substituted off at half-time.
Ange Postecoglou revealed that this was down to an injury caused by fatigue.
Now, with Lee Johnson's side the next test for the champions, Postecoglou has revealed that Jota will remain on the sidelines.
He insists that there will be no risk taking with his talisman, as he hopes to have him back training next week.
David Turnbull will also be out of action for the Premiership clash at Celtic Park after picking up an ankle injury, while Stephen Welsh will miss out too.
Postecoglou said: "Jota is not available still. We are being conservative with him. We expect him to be back in training next week at some point. Liel is fine, he has trained.
"The only ones from the other night are David Turnbull, he picked up a bit of a knock on his ankle so he's out, and Welshy picked up a knock in training so he is out."
