3 key Celtic stars set for pre-match inspection

Prior to their match against Motherwell, a number of important players are questionable, including Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate, and Liel Abada.

After they returned from their international duty late in the week, Celtic will evaluate Luis Palma and Kyogo Alistair Johnston.  is expected to start following his terrifying collision with Slobodan Rubezic.

However, Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate, and Liel Abada are still sidelined due to injury. In addition, a number of Motherwell players resumed training on Thursday following their recovery from injuries; however, Paul McGinn, Pape Souare, and Lennon Miller are still out. However, the champions are calling for the replacement of right-back Alistair Johnston and star player Palma. The Concacaf pair were important players for Honduras and Canada, respectively, but Palma’s shoulder injury kept him out of the Nations League second leg against Mexico.

David Turnbull is desperate to get going, but he faces competition from Odin Holm, Paulo Bernardo, and Matt O’Riley to join Callum McGregor and Matt O’Riley in the engine room. Palma and Yang will undoubtedly occupy the wings if he makes it, and Rodgers will be assessing whether Kyogo is ready to play after the Dons defender pole-axed him, causing complete chaos as the Japanese player lay motionless on the ground.
