Celtic will almost certainly be without defender Mikael Lustig for Saturday's Ladbrokes Premiership match at home to St Johnstone.
The Sweden full-back is struggling with a hamstring problem and will probably be sidelined for the Parkhead clash.
However, although defender Virgil van Dijk and winger James Forrest have been sitting out training, they should be available.
But striker Nadir Ciftci serves the final match of his six-game domestic ban.
St Johnstone manager Tommy Wright has no fresh injury problems to worry about.
However, he will again be without defender Steven Anderson, who has injured his eye socket but hopes to be back after the international break.
Right-back Darnell Fisher is on loan from Celtic and will not play against his parent club.
