ANGE POSTECOGLOU has made a host of changes to his Celtic side to face Bodo/Glimt tonight as several key men start on the bench.
The Celtic boss has left Callum McGregor, Jota, Cameron Carter-Vickets, Reo Hatate and Josip Juranovic out of the starting line-up in the Europa Conference League.
Celtic are in Norway hoping to overturn a 3-1 loss in the first leg and secure progress into the later stages of the competition.
There's familiarity in goal with Joe Hart keeping his place but there are a number of changes in the backline. Carl Starfelt remains the constant alongside Liam Scales, Stephen Welsh and Anthony Ralston.
The midfield, with McGregor dropping out, sees Nir Bitton play an anchoring role with Tom Rogic and Matt O'Riley offering creativity in attack.
James Forrest and Daizen Maeda start on the wings for the clash with Giorgos Giakoumakis given the nod to start up-front.
While a host of key stars begin the match on the bench it does leave Postecoglou with major firepower throughout the match should changes be necessary.
CELTIC XI: Hart, Starfelt, Scales, Bitton, Giakoumakis, Rogic, OβRiley, Maeda, Forrest, Ralston, Welsh.
SUBS: Bain, Oluwayemi, Jullien, Taylor, Abada, McCarthy, Jota, Carter-Vickers, Hatate, McGregor, Juranovic
