Celtic have a number of injury concerns ahead of Saturday's Old Firm derby at Ibrox but Gary Caldwell and Maciej Zurawski are set to return.
Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and Paul Hartley are extremely doubtful with hamstring injuries, while Scott Brown may again be ruled out with the same problem.
Caldwell (knee) returned to training on Thursday and will be assessed by the medical staff, while Zurawski is almost certain to return.
Caldwell's recovery could solve a problem at right-back with Jean-Joel Perrier Doumbe (Achilles), Mark Wilson (knee) and Paul Caddis all out.
Celtic (from): Boruc, Kennedy, Caldwell, McManus, Naylor, McGeady, Nakamura, Donati, Jarosik, Killen, Scott Brown, McDonald, Mark Brown, Riordan, Zurawski, Sno, O'Dea, O'Brien.

This is a strange game to call - I dont think it will be a classic tbh. Who cares, as long as we pump those blue * eh!

I'll take a draw right now.

I reckon we have enough in the tank to beat this mob and hopefully dont sustain anymore injuries as after that we board the flight to Portugal. Big big week in our season right now.

MON THE HOOPS, BRING ON THE * HUN SCUM!
-
every bit of confidence i have has faded since all the injuries.... i'll take a draw and stay top.
smiths got them playing well....... and ye can bet yer life he'll have them sashed out of their minds cos they're playing the tic.
tomorrow is all about bottle and a refusal to accept second best.
who ever wins that battle will win the game. -
Does anyone else actually hate old firm games. Theres just so much at stake and i usually feel drained after they are finished. Quality when we win but * if we lose.

Old firm games are better than the world cup final.....if your nation isn't playing of course, but I love the Old Firm match. But I agree, feels like * if we lose, but that won't happen now will it!
