Dundee FC
Celtic
- Dundee manager Tony Docherty made three changes from the Dee team that picked up a point at Pittodrie against Aberdeen in a goalless draw, before a second successive 0-0 draw against Rangers at Dens Park last midweek.
- Owen Dodgson and Ricki Lamie entered the Dee's back four, replacing Aaron Donnelly and Antonio Portales. Jordan McGhee moved to right-back, as Joe Shaughnessy continued to captain the side.
- Malachi Boateng came into a four-man midfield, replacing Dara Costelloe, and accompanied Luke McCowan, Mo Sylla and Lyall Cameron. Amadou Bakayoko and Scott Tiffoney were chosen to lead the line against Rangers last time out.
- Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers made two changes from the side that beat St Mirren 3-0 at Parkhead in their last Scottish Premiership match, before the Hoops secured a Scottish Cup final spot on penalties after a 3-3 draw against Aberdeen.
- Liam Scales returned to the heart of the Celtic defence, accompanying Cameron Carter-Vickers, as he replaced Maik Nawrocki at the back. Alistair Johnston and Greg Taylor continued at right-back and left-back respectively.
- Club captain Callum McGregor replaced Tomoki Iwata in the middle of the park, to join Reo Hatate and Matt O'Riley. James Forrest came off the bench to fire Celtic in front in a Hampden classic on Saturday, so could push for a start in this one.
