Celtic vs St Johnstone previewScott Brown will be added to the Celtic squad for the tie. The Hoops skipper has an ongoing hip problem and was rested for Saturday's defeat to Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premier League.
Georgios Samaras is making good progress on his recovery from an ankle injury, while Lassad and Dylan McGeouch remain on the sidelines.
Striker Gregory Tade is a major doubt for St Johnstone. Tade (leg) and defender Frazer Wright (broken nose) came off injured during the 1-1 SPL draw at Inverness on Saturday.
The Perth side were also without Peter Pawlett (hamstring), Craig Beattie (thigh), Jamie Adams (back) and Paddy Cregg (hamstring) against Caley Thistle and they are likely to be absent once again.
Celtic (from): Forster, Wilson, Mulgrew, Ambrose, Matthews, Izaguirre, Ledley, Commons, McCourt, Kayal, Hooper, Forrest, Miku, Watt, Wanyama, Rogne, Zaluska, Lustig, Brown.
St Johnstone (from) Mannus, Mackay, C Davidson, Anderson, Millar, M Davidson, Tade, Craig, Hasselbaink, Robertson, McCracken, Miller, Caddis, Scobbie, Tobin, Kane, Tuffey, Gray, Vine, Moon.
Forster
Lustig - Ambrose - Wilson - Izaguirre
Forrest - Wanyama - Ledley - Commons
Hooper - Miku
Miku wĂĽrde ich mal gerne in Kombination mit einem richtigen Sturmpartner sehen, alleine auf sich gestellt war er bislang ja eher glĂĽcklos. Aber dann muss auch mal was kommen langsam...
