Celtic head coach Wilfried Nancy will hope to win his third consecutive game and close the gap at the top of the Scottish Premiership table as his side takes on Motherwell at Fir Park on Tuesday night (kick-off: 8 pm).
The 48-year-old boss has secured a 4-2 win against basement side Livingston at the weekend, where a Benjamin Nygren double, followed by strikes from Yang Hyun-Jun and Arne Engels, helped them go within three points of league leaders Hearts, who lost to Hibs earlier in the day.
In contrast, their hosts Motherwell saw their 10-game unbeaten run come to an end at Ibrox, as Thelo Aasgaard’s second-half goal for Rangers helped them leapfrog Jens Berthel Askou’s team in the table. The Fir Park side are now in fourth.
Ahead of the game at Fir Park, The Scotsman has all the latest team news:

18. Colby Donovan - Celtic - RETURN TO STARTING XI?
The Celtic youngster is another that came off the bench in the win over Livingston. With games coming thick and fast, could Nancy opt to rotate his backline and introduce Donovan to the starting XI at Fir Park? | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
19. Aston Oxborough - Motherwell - OUT
The goalkeeper has not played for Motherwell to a broken arm. Will miss the game with Celtic, but reports claim he is targeting a January return. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
