Celtic will look to end their recent winless run when they welcome Falkirk to Parkhead in the Scottish Premiership this Wednesday (kick-off: 7.45pm).
The champions head into the game against the Bairns reeling from the shock resignation of head coach Brendan Rodgers, and desperate for three points after Sunday’s 3-1 defeat to Hearts.
Their second successive league defeat, they are eight points behind their Tynecastle title rivals just three months into the season. Further dropped points could be disastrous for the Hoops, but what changes will interim manager Martin O’Neill make in his first game in charge?
As for the visitors, John McGlynn’s side enter the game full of confidence following consecutive wins against Motherwell and Dundee, respectively. After struggling in the opening stages of the campaign, Falkirk have lost just one of their last five league games.
Both managers have several selection concerns ahead of the clash, with up to 10 players ruled out of the game with injury.
