Hooper returns for Bhoys

Gary Hooper is back in the Celtic squad for the Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Aberdeen at Parkhead.

Striker Hooper has recovered from a metatarsal injury while skipper Shaun Maloney, who withdrew from last week’s game against St Johnstone minutes before kick-off with a stomach bug, should be fit.

New signing Olivier Kapo will not be included while Daryl Murphy and James Forrest continue their recovery from ankle injuries.

Team (from): Forster, Wilson, Cha Du-Ri, Majstorovic, Rogne, Izaguirre, Ledley, McGinn, Ki, Samaras, Stokes, McCourt, Hooiveld, Mulgrew, Loovens, Crosas, Zaluska, Juarez, Towell, Hooper, Maloney.
