Samaras sits out cup tie

Celtic striker Georgios Samaras is still sidelined for tomorrow’s Co-Operative Insurance Cup third-round tie at Falkirk.

The Greece international picked up a nasty shin injury against Hapoel Tel Aviv in last week’s Europa League defeat, after crashing into his own club’s dug-out, and missed Sunday’s 2-1 Clydesdale Bank Premier League win over Hearts.
