New winger Derk Boerrigter goes straight into the squad having arrived from Ajax on a four-year deal, but fellow Dutchman Virgil van Dijk remains sidelined by a foot problem.

Ross County will be missing midfielders Richard Brittain and Ivan Sproule for the trip because of suspension.

The pair begin two-match bans having been sent off during pre-season friendlies and may be joined on the sidelines by Melvin De Leeuw, who is battling to overcome an ankle knock.

SPL champions Celtic welcome last season’s fifth placed side Ross County in the opening game of the Scottish Premiership this Saturday. Neil Lennon’s side go into the fixture having beaten Swedish champions Elfsborg in Champions League qualifier midweek, and will be hoping for a straightforward opening game before the return leg next Wednesday. Ross County travel south knowing that they made life difficult for Celtic on more than one occasion and will be hoping to spoil the party as Celtic unveil the league flag before the home crowd.

Celtic will be hoping to fare better against the Highland side this season, managing only one win in four attempts in the last campaign. Derek Adams side were probably the champion’s bogey team, and they will be wary of that. So far, Celtic have said goodbye to Victor Wanyama and Gary Hooper who have both made high profile moves to the English Premiership.

They have added Virgil Van Dijk, Amido Balde and Steven Mouyokolo to their squad, and most recently tied up the signing of Derk Boerrigter from Ajax. The Dutch winger is not short on confidence and spoke candidly on himself at today’s press conference

Ross County had an excellent debut campaign in the SPL last season, outperforming a number of their so called more illustrious rivals by securing a top six finish. The Dingwall outfit have, however, lost a number of players in the summer and repeating their impressive form of last season will be difficult. With the likes of Paul Lawson, Ian Vigurs and Mark Fortheringham having left the club for free in the summer, manager Adams has a difficult task ahead of him.

Despite their performances against Celtic last season, I feel Ross County will struggle after a poor pre season and with the loss of a number of key players over the summer. Celtic will be in high spirits with the unveiling of the league flag, and will also be sharper due to having played three competitive fixtures already this season. The champions will put on a show, and run out comfortable winners.

Celtic have won their last 12 home matches in the Premier League.

Ross County have conceded at least 2 goals in their last 4 away matches in the Premier League.

There have been over 2.5 goals Celtic’s last 9 home games in the Premier League.
