Duo back to boost Bhoys

Celtic are boosted by the return of Chris Sutton and Robert Douglas to the squad for the Tennent’s Scottish Cup semi-final against Hearts on Sunday.

The influential Englishman, who is back in training after a hamstring problem, was badly missed last week as the champions went down to the Edinburgh side at Celtic Park.

Goalkeeper Douglas also missed the game with a groin strain suffered on international duty but he is also back in training and putting pressure on replacement David Marshall. Didier Agathe (groin) is also close to a return after resuming training this week.

PROVISIONAL SQUAD: Douglas, Marshall, Henchoz, McNamara, Balde, Varga, Sutton, Petrov, McGeady, Thompson, Hartson, Lambert, Lennon, Bellamy, Fernandez, Valgaeren, Maloney, Sylla.
