Varga set to return for Celtic tomorrow

Celtic look set to be boosted by the return of defender Stanislav Varga for the Champions League match with Shakhtar Donetsk at Parkhead tomorrow night.

The Slovakian missed the win over Motherwell with a virus but he looked to have recovered from that today which is good news with the defence conceding goals at an alarming rate.

Manager Martin O’Neill is also hoping that Henri Camara recovers from an ankle injury while other players have been carrying knocks for a few weeks.

Provisional squad: Marshall, Hedman, Douglas, McGovern, Balde, Varga, Sylla, McNamara, Juninho, Pearson, Lambert, Lennon, Petrov, McGeady, Hartson, Agathe, Wallace, Cuthbert, Beattie, Thompson, Valgaeren, Petta, Camara, Varga.
