Three key Celtic stars to miss St Johnstone trip due to injury
Celtic will be without Nir Bitton, James Forrest and Albian Ajeti for their trip to Perth this weekend.
Bitton will miss Sunday’s match with a twisted ankle. The Israel international was injured early in the Hoops’ 1-0 Europa League play-off win over Sarajevo on Thursday night.
Striker Ajeti remains out with a hamstring problem and winger James Forrest is still sidelined with an ankle injury.
Meanwhile, St Johnstone welcome Callum Booth back into their squad for the clash with Celtic following an Achilles injury.
The left-back has been missing since the third game of the season.
Recent signing Craig Bryson is also pushing to be involved after regaining fitness.
