Team news ahead of Sunday's Scottish Premier League clash beween Celtic and Rangers at Parkhead (kick-off 12.45pm).

Georgios Samaras, Scott Brown, Kelvin Wilson and Glenn Loovens return to the Celtic squad.

Neil Lennon chose to rest some of his star players for the trip to Motherwell last week but will bring them back for the last Old Firm game of the season.

Celtic midfielder Ki Sung-yueng (hamstring) and James Forrest (ankle) are out but right-back Adam Matthews returns from illness and Beram Kayal, who has recovered fully from his ankle injury, could be included in the squad.

Rangers, meanwhile, could be boosted by the return of Kirk Broadfoot and Jamie Ness.

Both players are back in training now that full-back Broadfoot has recovered from a knee problem and midfielder Ness has overcome a number of injuries.

However, striker Kyle Lafferty will miss the derby after being handed a two-week club suspension earlier this weekend.

Celtic (from): Forster, Cha, Matthews, Rogne, Mulgrew, Izaguirre, Loovens, K Wilson, Kayal, Brown, Commons, Samaras, Wanyama, Ledley, Brozek, Hooper, Zaluska, Stokes, Bangura, Blackman, Lustig, McCourt, Watt.

Rangers (from): McGregor, Whittaker, Bocanegra, Wallace, Goian, Kerkar, Bartley, McCulloch, Aluko, Perry, Edu, McCabe, Little, Mitchell, Hegarty, Alexander, Bedoya, Healy, Broadfoot, Ness.
