One change for Celtic

Celtic manager Martin O’Neill made one change for the Bank of Scotland Premier League visit of Dunfermline as the Hoops aimed to cut the gap on leaders Rangers to just one point.

The Parkhead side were without influential striker Chris Sutton, who sustained a hamstring injury in the win at Hibernian last Sunday, and Aiden McGeady started in his place.

Dunfermline manager Davie Hay made three changes from the team which drew with Hearts last weekend.

Andrius Skerla, Barry Nicholson and Craig Wilson all returned in place of Gary Mason, Lee Makel and Georgi Hristov.

Celtic: Douglas, Varga, Balde, Laursen, McNamara, Petrov, Lennon, Thompson, McGeady, Bellamy, Hartson. Subs: Marshall, Henchoz, Valgaeren, Fernandez, Lambert, Wallace, Beattie.

Dunfermline: Stillie, Darren Young, Scott Wilson, Skerla, Tod, Ross, Nicholson, Christiansen, Donnelly, Campbell, Craig Wilson. Subs: Langfield, McKeown, Scullion, Dunn, McGlinchey.

Referee: I Brines (Scotland)
