Struggling player axed in one change: Celtic expected XI v Hibernian
MIDFIELD
James Forrest (Left-wing) – Wasn’t at his best against Rangers but is expected to keep his place in the team as he has been one of the players of the season for the Hoops after a series of excellent performances
Olivier Ntcham (Centre-midfield) – Controlled the midfield in the semi-final and will be expected to do the same at Easter Road, he has turned into a vital player for the Hoops as the season has went on
Scott Brown (Centre-midfield) – His battle with John McGinn will be one of the defining features of the game, which is expected to determine if the Hoops win the game, if Brown wins the battle, the Hoops can win the game
Tom Rogic (Attacking-midfield) – Was at his mercurial best v Rangers, scored a great goal and showed the kind of skill that is practically unmatched in the Scottish game, expected to keep his place in the side
Callum McGregor (Right-wing) – Expected to again play in a position that isn’t naturally his, but he usually makes it work, as evidenced with a very well-taken goal in the semi-final for the Bhoys
