Scott Brown passed a late fitness test ahead of Celtic’s Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash against Hearts at Parkhead.

Scott Brown passed a late fitness test ahead of Celtic’s Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash against Hearts at Parkhead.

Brown recovered from an ankle injury picked up in last week’s goalless draw at Hibs which left the Hoops two points behind Rangers going in to the last game of the season.

In the one change Celtic boss Gordon Strachan made to his side, left-back Darren O’Dea came in for Lee Naylor who started on the bench.

Hearts, with their Europa League place secured, made two changes from the side that beat Dundee United 3-0 last week.

Bruno Aguiar and Ruben Palazeulos dropped out, replaced by Marius Zaliukas and David Templeton.
