Partick Thistle midfielder Mark Kerr is a doubt with a back complaint.
Gary Fraser is suspended after being sent off in an Under-20 game and Jordon McMillan has yet to fully recover from a thigh injury.
James Forrest and Charlie Mulgrew are fitness concerns for Celtic and may join Derk Boerrigter and Kris Commons on the sidelines.
Beram Kayal and Mikael Lustig are expected to shrug off knocks and Scott Brown returns from a European ban.
Partick Thistle manager Alan Archibald: "We know it will be a lot more difficult, a massive challenge against a very good team.
"They have that confidence and a lot better players in every position.
"Their creativity is very good, in the final third especially, and they are all comfortable with the ball.
"It is something we are well aware of and we need to stop them playing.
"If we get anything from the game it would be brilliant, and positive to take into the next game against Aberdeen."
Celtic manager Neil Lennon: "It is a derby and I haven't had one of them for a while so I am looking forward to it.
"I could literally walk to the stadium from the house - but I'm not going to, obviously.
Bring em on
