Odsonne Edouard available to start against St Johnstone

The Hoops are waiting on Jozo Simunovic and Jeremie Frimpong.

St Johnstone will be without Drey Wright for the visit of Ladbrokes Premiership leaders Celtic.

The wide player suffered a hamstring injury against Kilmarnock on Saturday.

Murray Davidson remains out with a fractured arm while Anthony Ralston cannot face his parent club.

But boss Tommy Wright will have defender Jamie McCart available after he completed a move from Inverness.

Celtic have a fitness doubt over Jozo Simunovic but Ryan Christie and Kristoffer Ajer are back in the squad.

Odsonne Edouard has shaken off the toe knock that restricted him to a substitute’s appearance on Saturday but Ismaila Soro is not ready to feature.

Jeremie Frimpong is awaiting the results of a scan on the injury he suffered against Kilmarnock while Mohamed Elyounoussi (foot), Hatem Abd Elhamed (groin) and Nir Bitton (knock) are also out.

St Johnstone provisional squad: Clark, Duffy, Booth, Tanser, Vihmann, Gordon, Kerr, Holt, McCart, Swanson, Craig, McCann, O’Halloran, Kane, May, Wotherspoon, Hendry, Northcott, Parish.

Celtic provisional squad: Forster, Bauer, Hayes, Ajer, Bolingoli, Taylor, Jullien, Simunovic, Brown, McGregor, Arzani, Rogic, Ntcham, Johnston, Forrest, Edouard, Bayo, Klimala, Griffiths, Welsh, Dembele, Gordon.
