- Stuart Kettlewell named two enforced changes to the Motherwell team that drew against Aberdeen 3-3 at Pittodrie, before a 2-0 defeat to Hearts at Tynecastle last Saturday afternoon.
- Dan Casey made his first Motherwell start since the beginning of December, as Calum Butcher made way, to join Bevis Mugabi and Paul McGinn in the Well's back three. Georgie Gent and Adam Devine continued at left and right wing-back.
- Lennon Miller made his first Scottish Premiership start since the beginning of November, as Blair Spittal missed the trip to Edinburgh. He and Harry Paton got forward, in support of strike duo Jack Vale and Theo Bair up front.
- Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers named just one change to the Celts side that progressed in the Scottish Cup thanks to a 2-0 win over St Mirren in Paisley, before they were held at home in a 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock last weekend.
- Greg Taylor entered the Hoops defence after a month out, to start against his former club. Anthony Ralston, Stephen Welsh and Liam Scales made up the rest of the back four. Callum McGregor and Matt O'Riley were the duo sat in front of them.
