Celtic take on Ross County this Sunday in the Scottish Premiership as they look to see out the league season unbeaten. With just six matches left, the champions have history in their sights.

Trips to the Highlands are traditionally not easy for the Hoops but after a rampant season in which they’ve brushed aside every side in the division, supporters will be confident making the trip North and hopeful of another brilliant result on the road.

With the Scottish Cup semi-final on the horizon too, it’s important for Brendan Rodgers that his team carry positivity forward to Hampden.

Managing the fitness of the squad is important too and with some key players returning from injury, Sunday is a great opportunity to give them game time and get them up to speed ahaead of the Rangers game.

With that in mind, here are three returning Bhoys who could return to blow away Ross County…

Tom Rogic

Tom Rogic hasn’t started a match since mid-December but has come off the bench in the last two matches as he continues his rehabilitation from injury. His early season form was a massive part of Celtic’s incredible run and if he starts against Ross County, it could be a massive lift to the team.

He gives the Hoops another dimension to their play through the middle and has the skill, trickery and most importantly the end product to really change a game.

Before his injury he scored 10 goals and at the time was one of the highest scorers in the entire squad. If Brendan Rodgers can bring him back to start against County then he’ll be in with a shout to feature against Rangers and his presence could be a massive factor.

He did of course score against the Gers in the same fixture last season and also netted in the Hoops’ last trip to Hampden in the League Cup Final against Aberdeen.

Moussa Dembele

Moussa Dembele hasn’t started a match for almost a month, having picked up an injury in a 2-1 win away to Dundee at Dens.

He is of course the Celtic player who has really punished Rangers this season, netting in three of the four matches against the Hoops’ city rivals. He has the quality and the big game mentality to punish Pedro Caixinha’s side, as witnessed in the last semi-final between the two sides, when his back-heeled nutmeg broke Gers hearts in the League Cup.

Sunday’s game could be a big part of him getting back up to that standard. Coming off the bench against Kilmarnock last week, he’s set to start in the Highlands and with a massive 32 goals this season already, who’d bet against him being the one to inspire Celtic to all three points?

Leigh Griffiths

Injured on international duty with Scotland due to the above challenge, Leigh Griffiths has been out ever since with a back injury, missing out on some big occasions and the chance to challenge for a first team place in the absence of Moussa Dembele.

For them to both be injured at the same time must be a big disappointment for the Scotland striker, who has failed to displace the Frenchman this season.

He returned to full training this week though and is available for selection for the Sunday’s trip to Dingwall. Whether he gets a starting spot remains to be seen, especially with Moussa Dembele also itching for game time.

He could make a cameo off the bench though and if the game is tight, his presence could be the difference between a draw and a win.
