The attacker suffered a hamstring injury against Rangers, and it’s unclear how long he’ll be out. Brendan Rodgers has stated, “Daizen will miss the weekend. He picked up an injury high in his hamstring, his tendon, so we will have to see what that looks like in the coming weeks. But he is certainly not available for the weekend.”

2. Liam Scales (out) – Celtic

He also suffered an injury versus the Rangers. Brendan Rodgers has stated: “Liam Scales has picked up a slight strain in his abductor so the likelihood is that he won’t be involved.”

3. James McCarthy (Out) – Celtic

The midfielder has fallen out of favour at Celtic Park, having not appeared since October 2022.

4. Hyeok-kyu Kwon (Ineligible) – St Mirren

The South Korean midfielder is unable to play against his parent club. He joined St Mirren in January and has already appeared in eight league games.

5. Ryan Strain (doubt) – St Mirren
