Celtic defender Kieran Tierney is available for the Scottish Cup fourth-round tie against Albion Rovers on Sunday at the Excelsior Stadium in Airdrie.

The 19-year-old, who last played in the League Cup semi-final win against Rangers at Hampden, has been out of action because of an ankle injury and also has surgery on a shoulder problem during his absence.

Hoops striker Leigh Griffiths has also recovered from a hamstring injury which kept him off the pitch for the team's recent victory at Ibrox.

Midfielder Tom Rogic is also available for the first time since December 17 when he suffered an ankle injury during the 2-1 victory against Dundee.

New signing Kouassi Eboue has just received clearance to play for Celtic and will not be included in the squad by manager Brendan Rodgers.

Celtic are hoping to win the Scottish Cup for a record 37th occasion this season and for the first time since 2013 when they defeated current holders Hibernian in the final.
