Celtic pair doubtful

Celtic manager Martin O’Neill admits he has “one or two problems” ahead of their visit to Dundee on Sunday following the internationals which have taken place over the last week.

Joos Valgaeren tweaked his medial knee ligaments during Belgium’s game against Croatia last week – although a scan has since shown little damage, it is not certain the big defender will be able to play a part at Dens Park.

The same goes for Scotland goalkeeper Rob Douglas. He was forced to pull out of Wednesday’s Euro 2004 qualifier against Lithuania after picking up a slight thigh strain against Iceland but O’Neill will wait until the last minute before making a decision on the pair.

Didier Agathe has returned to training after tearing his hamstring against Rangers last month but it is unlikely he will feature on Sunday.

Provisional squad: Douglas, Broto, Mjallby, Valgaeren, Balde, Varga, Laursen, Smith, Lennon, McNamara, Lambert, Fernandez, Guppy, Maloney, Hartson, Larsson, Petrov, Petta, Sylla, Healy, Miller.
