Queen's Park 2 Celtic 1 LIVE as Dom Thomas gives the hosts a shock lead

The new season is edging ever closer - and Celtic are ramping up their preparations against Queen's Park.

The Hoops got things started against Scottish Championship opposition when facing Ayr United and will continue that trend against the Spiders before flying out to America.

Callum Davidson's men will welcome the Hoops to Lesser Hampden with the national stadium still undergoing work on the pitch after a summer of concerts in Mount Florida.

And that is unlikely to be the only change with Brendan Rodgers majorly shaking up his squad for the clash against Scott Brown's side.

Daizen Maeda and Luis Palma are back in contention after returning to Lennoxtown - but have been left out before the trip to America.

Queen's Park: Ferrie, Mauchin, Scott, Fox, Wilson, Thomson, Paton, Thomas, MacGregor, Hinds, Turner. Subs: Welsh, Longridge, Smith, Tizzard, Reid, Hickey-Fugaccia, McLeish, Connolly, McDonnell, MacKenzie, Carrick, Kane, Wills.

Celtic: Bain, Tomoki, Welsh, Murray, Kobayashi, Lawal, O'Riley, Holm, Yang, M. Johnston, Kyogo Subs: Siegrist, Oluwayemi, Clarke, Oh, Kwon, Frame, Agbaire, Robertson, Dede, Ure, Donovan, Hatton, Turley.

It's the last stop before a blockbuster fixture card Stateside - and fans will be keen to see how the squad is shaping up ahead of their bid to defend the Premiership crown.
