Brendan Rodgers has provided four Celtic injury bulletins, one of which will result in a player’s absence from the derby against Rangers. Brendan Rodgers, Celtic’s manager, has disclosed two favourable and two unfavourable injury updates.

 

 

 

In an effort to atone for their previous 2-1 defeat to Hibs in the Premiership, Celtic will host the Hibees in the Scottish Cup on Sunday. After a remarkable performance against Bayern Munich in the Champions League, that defeat was precipitated by a noticeable fatigue in Leith’s legs. “We have dedicated one hundred percent of our attention to the game this week.

 

 

 

” The game’s vitality will be entirely distinct. I anticipate that the game will be challenging. However, I anticipate that Hibs will also face a challenging match. Therefore, what is the Celtic first-team squad’s level of fitness as they prepare for the quarter-final match against Hibs? Rodgers disclosed four injury bulletins during his press conference.

 

 

 

 

However, Celtic have now accrued a full week of training, and Rodgers informed reporters at his press conference on Friday that Hibs are in for a challenging afternoon in Glasgow. The Hoops manager stated, “I believe that the context of this game is entirely distinct from the one we played a few weeks ago.”

 

 

 

The Irishman, who was a first-half substitute in the encounter, remained resolute at the centre of the defence. However, Rodgers believes that Scales will be unable to play in the Hibs encounter due to an injury to his cheekbone.

 

 

 

He hinted that Liam Scales would likely be sidelined due to a cheekbone injury sustained during the St. Mirren encounter. “He exhibited remarkable courage in persisting with that, but it has been subjected to an x-ray, so we must exercise caution.”

 

 

 

We will have to check on that next week; there is no timetable for it. Rodgers anticipates that Paulo Bernardo will be absent from the Rangers’ match. Additionally, the manager informed reporters that Auston Trusty, a defender, had received sutures after sustaining a head injury in Paisley.

 

 

 

 

This necessitated his exit from the field, and Scales assumed his position alongside Cameron Carter-Vickers for the remainder of the game. Nevertheless, Rodgers has stated that the American is in good health and is a viable candidate to face the Hibees. However, there is additional unfavourable information regarding Paulo Bernardo.
