Rosenborg v Celtic preview: Leigh Griffiths could feature in Norway on Wednesday

Celtic pair Leigh Griffiths and Erik Sviatchenko are available for the Champions League qualifier away to Rosenborg on Wednesday night after missing the first leg through injury.

The pair trained with their team-mates at Lennoxtown on Tuesday morning before checking in at Glasgow Airport for the flight to Trondheim.

Rodgers: Clean sheet crucial

Brendan Rodgers says shutting Rosenborg out at Celtic Park last week was vital ahead of second leg...

And Griffiths is expected to play some part at the Lerkendal Stadion, although he is not certain to start.

Celtic assistant manager Chris Davies said: "Leigh will be travelling with us. He has been working hard to get back.

"He is available for selection, as is Erik Sviatchenko.

"He (Griffiths) has obviously not been training all the time in the last few weeks, but he has had some good rehab, has worked very, very hard and he is available for us, which is a big boost."

Celtic played without a recognised striker in the goalless first leg of the third qualifying-round tie.

Moussa Dembele is out for several weeks with a hamstring injury and Griffiths was suspended for one match, although the Scotland international would have missed the game with a calf problem anyway.

Asked if he expected Griffiths to play in Norway, Davies said: "I think so, yes, without giving away too much whether he is going to start or not.

"He is an important player for us and it's good for us going into the game.

"We have a lot of players who are important in terms of scoring goals and creating chances but Griff is an important player for us, he has been since he's been here.

"The manager works closely with him, he has a good relationship with him and we are really pleased that he is available for selection."
