25-year-old axed in four changes: Celtic best possible XI v Hamilton

GOALKEEPER AND DEFENCE

Craig Gordon (Goalkeeper) – Should keep his place in the team after replacing Scott Bain against Dundee, and he should keep his place in the first-team for the rest of the season going forward

Mikael Lustig (Right-back) – Should keep his place in the team after playing at centre-back against Dundee in midweek, but should be back in his normal position against Hamilton as the Hoops change their formation

Kristoffer Ajer (Centre-back) – Should replace Jack Hendry, the 19-year-old was left out against Dundee which was an odd decision which should be rectified with the Norwegian taking his usual place in defence

Dedryck Boyata (Centre-back) – Should keep his place in the team even though he has been in poor form, Brendan Rodgers is a fan and he seems determined to keep the Belgian international in the side

Kieran Tierney (Right-back) – Should replace Callum McGregor, the 21-year-old should return from his calf injury for his first game in a few weeks, he is returning at just the right time with the semi-final looming
