Celtic are without Craig Gordon and Nadir Ciftci for the Scottish Cup fourth-round tie at Stranraer on Sunday.
Goalkeeper Gordon and striker Ciftci are both suspended for the match at Stair Park, which is live on Sky Sports 1.
Gordon will be replaced between the sticks by Belgian stopper Logan Bailly, who last started for Celtic in the 3-1 Scottish Premiership win over Dundee United at Tannadice in August.
Leigh Griffiths, who scored a stoppage-time winner in last Saturday's victory over Partick in the Glasgow derby, is likely to make his first start in five weeks following a recent calf problem.
Defender Dedryck Boyata and midfielder Stuart Armstrong have made good progress from their respective hamstring and back injuries but the game comes too soon for both.
Long-term injured skipper Scott Brown and the versatile Charlie Mulgrew remain on the sidelines recovering from injuries.
Ryan Christie, recently recalled from his loan spell at Inverness CT, is on his way back from a knee injury and should join in full training at Lennoxtown next week.
