Celtic defender Paul Telfer replaced the injured Mark Wilson for the Bank of Scotland Premier League visit of Falkirk.

The former Dundee United right-back was ruled out for up to eight weeks after sustaining a knee injury in a 1-1 draw with Rangers last week.

The defensive switch was manager Gordon Strachan's only change, with Jiri Jarosik and Maciej Zurawski remaining as the front pair for the Hoops.

Falkirk beat Hibernian 2-1 last week and head coach John Hughes also made one change, bringing in midfielder Stephen O'Donnell for veteran playmaker Russell Latapy, who started on the bench.
