Everton vs Celtic Prediction
Both teams will take this game as an opportunity to give their young players some game time. With big names missing from both squads, it's difficult to predict how the game could pan out.
Celtic have traveled with some of their regular starters like Joe Hart, Giorgos Giakoumakis, and Carl Starfelt, so might be able to produce a solid display. Everton have included the likes of Tom Davies, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Anthony Gordon and James Tarkowski, but given their poor form, they might struggle.
