Title Challenge Boost: Trio of Celtic first team stars return ahead of Rangers clash as Callum McGregor disappoint the Medics to play in the Glasgow Derby

Title Challenge Boost: Trio of Celtic first team stars return ahead of Rangers clash as Callum McGregor disappoint the Medics to play in the Glasgow Derby

Brendan Rodgers, Celtic’s manager, will want to have as many choices as possible in the season’s final stretch.

Last weekend, Reo Hatate and Liam Scales returned to the squad following injury worries prior to the international break.

Cameron Carter-Vickers appears to be fully healthy, and if all goes as planned,

Callum McGregor has a fighting chance of being included in this weekend’s Glasgow Derby.

Of course, this weekend’s match between the Scottish Premiership’s top two might have a huge impact on the title race,

with a win for Celtic giving Rodgers’ side a four-point advantage.

If we draw at Ibrox, we will still have an opportunity to wipe out any lead Rangers gained from their trip to Dundee the following Wednesday in the reverse encounter at Parkhead after the split.

On the other hand, a loss for the Bhoys would not make for good reading,

but our boss has only lost once in 15 games against Rangers, which should bode well in Govan.

Celtic acquire a significant injury boost for Luis Palma.

According to The Sun, Celtic could benefit from the return of Luis Palma for this weekend’s Glasgow Derby,

as he is ahead of schedule in his recuperation from a muscle injury.

According to the outlet, the Honduran international will participate in training as the Bhoys prepare to face their opponents,

and if he emerges unscathed, the 24-year-old will almost certainly be named in Rodgers’ matchday squad.

Palma has had a major impression since signing from Aris last summer, with nine goals and 10 assists in 30 games across all competitions.

According to Fotmob, he has also been the Hoops’ top creator of chances in league play, creating 12 significant opportunities.

If Palma plays on Sunday, Celtic will have almost a complete squad to choose from, with Odin Thiago Holm and Maik Nawrocki the only notable absentees.
