Callum McGregor and Matt O'Riley hold onto their spots in midfield while Reo Hatate drops to the bench, with David Turnbull being given the nod.
Jota once again starts on the left wing, James Forrest comes in on the right and Kyogo Furuhashi replaces Giorgos Giakoumakis at centre-forward.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
