O’Neill makes surprise changes ahead of Sunday’s derby match.

Celtic fans will be keen to see the line up for tonights Scottish Premiership clash against St Johnstone with one eye on the weekend old firm clash.

Fans will be wondering whether record signing Kasper Høgh returns to the line up after Martin O’Neill confirmed the Danish striker has returned to training. The forward has not been seen since the disastrous collapse in Austria against LASK. The manager will be hoping to get the big striker up to speed ahead of the trip to ibrox this weekend.

Kasper Høgh DOES start the match along with four other changes for Celtic this evening. Høgh, Murray, Sørensen and Tounekti start for Celtic in a line up not many could have predicted. However the biggest news of the night is a surprise start for Celtic’s new goalkeeper Sam Johnstone. Manager Martin O’Neill is clearly keen to see what the Englishman can offer between the sticks.

Duran was in sensational form while Høgh was injured but now has to be content with a place on the bench while Martin O’Neill manages the squad ahead of Sunday.
