Team News: Celtic start Georgios Samaras, Anthony Stokes and Teemu Pukki

By Paul Gorst, Reporter | 22 October 2013

Celtic have named Georgios Samaras, Anthony Samaras and Teemu Pukki in their starting lineup for tonight's Champions League clash against Ajax.

Celtic have named an attacking lineup for tonight's visit of Ajax in the Champions League.

Neil Lennon's side have zero points in their group, and need to start picking up points if they are to progress in the competition, and the team reflects that reality, with Georgios Samaras named upfront alongside Anthony Stokes and Teemu Pukki.

Ajax boss Frank de Boer has named talented Dane Viktor Fischer in his side, and a win could take them into second, if Barcelona beat AC Milan in other game in Group H.

Ajax: Cillessen; Van Rhijn, Veltman, Denswil, Blind; De Jong, Poulsen, Serero; Andersen, Sigthorsson, Fischer

Celtic: Forster; Lustig, Ambrose, Van Dijk, Izaguirre; Forrest, Kayal, Mulgrew; Samaras, Stokes, Pukki
