Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou has named his starting XI for his side's latest friendly match, a trip to Banik Ostrava of Czech Republic.
Josip Juranovic comes into the team at right-back after missing Saturday's enthralling 3-3 draw at Rapid Wien, with fellow full-back Anthony Ralston also returning to the squad, albeit on the bench. It's as close to full strength as Celtic have been so far after a week in Austria for friendlies with Wiener Viktoria and Rapid, with Kyogo, Jota, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Joe Hart, Callum McGregor, Matt O'Riley and David Turnbull all starting.
The Czech side have called in the Hoops to help them celebrate their 100-year anniversary but for Postecoglou, it's all about getting his team prepared for a campaign that will include defending their Premiership title and Champions League group stage football. After their camp in Austria, they have journeyed to Czech Republic for another 90 minutes.
