Celtic v Dundee Utd preview

Published Jan. 13, 2012 1:19 p.m. ET

Gary Hooper and Kris Commons are back in contention for Celtic having recovered from groin and thigh injuries respectively.

Winger James Forrest has a viral problem and will be assessed while striker Mo Bangura (knee) is still out.

United have Robbie Neilson available again after he missed last week's 6-2 Scottish Cup win at Airdrie.

Long-term absentee Scott Severin, who is recovering from a broken leg, remains sidelined, however, while midfielder Danny Swanson is also unlikely to feature as he continues his rehabilitation from a knee injury.
