Defender axed in Rodgers 4-5-1: Celtic best possible XI v Rangers
GOALKEEPER AND DEFENCE
Craig Gordon (Goalkeeper) – Should keep his place in the first-team despite making an error which lead to a goal for Hibernian as Hoops boss Brendan Rodgers rates him over Scott Bain.
Mikael Lustig (Right-back) – Should replace defender Jack Hendry, who must be axed. The veteran has just returned from injury but is a better bet than Hendry as he is an actual right-back who will be playing in his correct position.
Dedryck Boyata (Centre-back) – Should keep his place in the team despite a series of poorish performances, there shouldn’t be much doubt that the Gers will target him as the weak link of the team.
Kristoffer Ajer (Centre-back) – Should be a key man for the Hoops as he as been one of the best players for the Bhoys in recent months, he was unlucky not to win a YPOTY nomination this week.
Kieran Tierney (Left-back) – Should be getting up and down the wing for the Bhoys as he has the ability to play as well in defence as he does in attack, perhaps an outside bet for a goal even.
