CELTIC take on Aberdeen in the Reserve Cup this afternoon at Cappielow.
This means there will be more game time for new Celtic duo Armstrong Oko-Flex and Daniel Arzani to impress.
Both players have started the last few games for the developmental squad with Arzani bagging a nice free kick for his one and only goal so far.
Oko-Flex should be happy with his involvement – at the age of just 16, he is one of the youngest players in the side and it shows the confidence in him and that Brendan Rodgers wants to see the player get game time.
For Arzani, it’s all about racking up more game time.
The Australian has yet to feature for the first team since making the two-year loan move to Celtic Park.
Rodgers made it clear the youngster had not played 90 minutes of professional football and had a ways to go before he would be ready for first team duty.
The talent is there but Rodgers wants to nurture the talent so Daniel is best placed to make an impact when the time comes.
Here is the full squad for today’s game.
The impressive Ewan Henderson takes his place in the side too, as does the much forgotten Kundai Benyu.
