Confirmed Dundee vs Celtic team news as James Forrest handed start

Dundee host Celtic on today's second Premiership clash as the Hoops look to extend their lead the top of the table.

Rangers are currently beating St Mirren and that would bring them level with the Hoops if it were to remain that way. Brendan Rodgers' men would then have the chance to move three points clear again if they can take care of business at Dens Park, which has itself been in the news for the wrong reasons.

Tony Docherty's men will be looking to go above the Buddies if they can get the three points for themselves as they bid for Europe after successfully securing a top six spot.

Celtic starting XI: Hart, Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor, McGregor, O'Riley, Hatate, Kuhn, Forrest, Kyogo

Subs: Bain, Palma, Nawrocki, Idah, Yang, Iwata, Bernardo, Kelly, Ralston

Dundee starting XI: McCracken, McGhee, Dogson, Tiffoney, Bakayoko, Lamie, Mulligan, McCowan, Boateng, Sylla, Portales

Subs: Sharp, Astley, Main, Robinson, Robertson, Howley, Donnelly, Mellon, Costelloe
