GLASGOW: Celtic face a testing week as they travel to a rejuvenated Hibernian side today before facing Ajax in a crucial Champions League clash on Tuesday.
Celtic boss Neil Lennon was pleased to see most of his players return unscathed from international duty while the fortnight lay-off allowed several of his injured players much needed time to recuperate. However, the knock Mikel Lustig picked up while away with Sweden coupled with Adam Matthews’ long-term shoulder injury has presented the manager with a dilemma at right-back.
“We’ll have to rethink a little bit regarding Hibs,” the Celtic manager said.AFP
