Celtic CCV Mystery
Brendan Rodgers has named his Celtic starting 11 to face Kilmarnock at Rugby Park this afternoon in the Scottish Premiership.
Having won 3-1 against RB Leipzig at Celtic Park in the Champions League on Tuesday, the Hoops go into the game in top form, with Nicolas Kühn, Reo Hatate, and Callum McGregor all receiving plaudits for their performances in the vital win.
Tuesday was simply a standout performance.
Considering the fact that Leipzig took the lead in the game, the manner in which Celtic were able to fight back and comfortably dominate highlights just how much the Hoops have improved under Rodgers.
This victory also marked three consecutive home wins in the Champions League for the first time since 2007.

Rodgers has made two changes, with Liam Scales and Adam Idah both coming into the starting 11.
However, Kyogo Furuhashi and Cameron Carter-Vickers both drop out and with Carter-Vickers not even on the bench.
With both Trusty and Carter-Vickers missing training on Friday, there were doubts about whether they would make the Game.
However, Trusty has made it, while Carter-Vickers has not.
It’s likely that CCV was rested, with all Hoops supporters hopeful it’s nothing more than a precaution, especially with an international break coming up next week.
It will be interesting to see if Carter-Vickers and Trusty make the US national team squad, which will be released later today by Head Coach Mauricio Pochettino.
Kickoff for today’s Game is 3pm, and it is live on Sky Sports Football.
