Neil Lennon has revealed that Christopher Jullien and Hatem Elhamed could make starts against Sparta Prague in the Europa League tomorrow.
The pair have been missing in recent weeks due to injury and suspensions, but in his pre-match press conference the Hoops manager admitted that both could be in line for a start.
Lennon also told how Leigh Griffiths will miss the Euro showdown due to a knee problem.
He said: “Griffiths is out with a knee problem but should be ok over the next few days. Jullien and Elhamed are in contention to start.
“We must endeavour to try and win the game. Our away record in Europe has been pretty good. We take all the positives from that and bring it into the game tomorrow.
“We have to win tomorrow to stand any chance of qualifying. That’s our sole focus now. The reverse game here was as disappointing as we’ve been for a while and it’s important we motivate ourselves to correct that."
