Celtic welcome back Neil Lennon and Alan Thompson from suspension but are without Maciej Zurawski for the Bank of Scotland Premier League top-of-the-table clash with Hearts.

The midfield duo are expected to go straight back into the starting XI despite their thumping Livingston 5-0 at Almondvale a fortnight ago on their last outing.

Zurawski is faces weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury sustained for Poland against England in midweek. Striker John Hartson is pushing for a start after being left on the bench against Livingston.

Provisional squad: Boruc, Telfer, Balde, McManus, Camara, Maloney, McGeady, Petrov, Sutton, Lawson, Nakamura, Beattie, Hartson, Marshall, Virgo, Wallace, Pearson, Agathe, Thompson, Lennon.
