25-yr-old axed in two changes to Rodgers 3-5-2: Celtic best possible XI v Rangers
GOALKEEPER AND DEFENCE
Dorus de Vries (Goalkeeper) – Should keep his place in the team ahead of Scott Bain, but will need to impress fans who have never been convinced that he is good enough to play for the Hoops
Kristoffer Ajer (Centre-back) – Should remain as part of the back three, the 19-year-old has been in excellent form for the Bhoys since becoming a regular in the side back in December after the 4-0 loss to Hearts
Marvin Compper (Centre-back) – Should start his first league game for the Hoops after his debut against Morton, will be tested far more against the Gers than he was against the Championship side
Jozo Simunovic (Centre-back) – Should start as he has a good record against Rangers, but recent poor performances will mean he is under pressure from supporters to have a good match
