Dundee FC
- Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers made just one change to the Celts side that was held at home by St Johnstone in a 0-0 draw, before a 1-0 derby day victory against Rangers at Ibrox prior to the international break.
- Despite confirming the signing of Liverpool loanee Nat Phillips, the Hoops went with an unchanged back four as Liam Scales and Gustaf Lagerbielke were thrown in at the deep end for the trip to Govan.
- There was a spot on the bench for new signing Luis Palma but the only alteration saw Liel Abada start at Hyunjun Yang's expense. The Israeli joined Japanese duo Daizen Maeda and the matchwinner - Kyogo Furuhashi - in attack.
- Dundee boss Tony Docherty also made just one change from the Dee's first victory upon their return to the Premiership where they beat Hearts 1-0 at Dens Park, before their 2-2 Tayside derby day draw against St Johnstone in Perth.
- Ricki Lamie was handed his Dundee debut at McDiarmid Park, replacing right-back Cammy Kerr as Jordan McGhee took his spot on the right-hand side of defence. The duo accompanied left-back Owen Beck and Joe Shaughnessy at the back.
- Luke McCowan, Finlay Robertson and Malachi Boateng continued in midfield. Scott Tiffoney and Zach Robinson were tasked with providing the width and support for lone striker Amadou Bakayoko.
