Brendan Rodgers has named his first Celtic team of the new season as the Hoops begin their Scottish Premiership title defence.
Kilmarnock are the visitors at Parkhead this afternoon with the flag being unfurled prior to kick-off.
Rodgers has opted to line up with Kasper Schmeichel in goal. He will be shielded by a back four of Alistair Johnston, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Liam Scales and Greg Taylor.
Callum McGregor, Matt O'Riley and Reo Hatate make up the midfield trio. While Nicolas Kuhn and James Forrest will support Kyogo Furuhashi up front.
But there's no Daizen Maeda in the Hoops squad, which the manager will possibly address during his pre-match press duties.
