Stokes starts as sub for Celtic

Goalkeeper Lukasz Zaluska was given a rare start for Celtic in their Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Hearts at Parkhead.

The Pole replaced number one Fraser Forster, out with a neck problem, while Israel defender Rami Gershon, signed on loan from Standard Liege until the end of the season, started on the bench along with Anthony Stokes who was back from an ankle injury which had kept him out since August.

Former Rangers defender Danny Wilson, 21, who joined Hearts on loan for the rest of the season from Liverpool yesterday, made his debut alongside the returning Andy Webster.

Celtic: Zaluska, Matthews, Lustig, Mulgrew, Izaguirre, Commons, Brown, Wanyama, Ledley, Samaras, Hooper.

Subs: Thomson, Gershon, Stokes, Nouioui, Rogne, Kayal, McGeouch.

Hearts: MacDonald, Barr, Webster, Wilson, McHattie, Holt, McGowan, Taouil, Driver, Paterson, Sutton.

Subs: Ridgers, Gordon Smith, Walker, Prychynenko, Novikovas, Tapping, Carrick.
