Arne Engels starts in Brendan Rodgers' side as Celtic face Ross County in the Scottish Premiership.
The manager has made three changes to the side that lost 7-1 to Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League, with Alex Valle, Reo Hatate and Adam Idah all having been given the nod in the Hoops' starting XI.
This afternoon, Engels makes his first trip to Dingwall and is keen to put Celtic's midweek result firmly behind him as he and his teammates strive to maintain their perfect league record in 2024/25 so far.
Speaking to Sky Sports ahead of today's match (12noon kick-off), the 21-year-old said: "[Tuesday] was a tough one to take. We saw the footage back, [Dortmund] were good opponents and made the space for themselves well and they had a lot of speed in front.
"We learn from it and we need to keep on going, Sunday is a new start and we want to win there again."

Speaking about how he's settled so far into Celtic and Scottish football, Engels added: "It's been incredible. All the games that we have played have been good. I'm now settled in and it'll be good for me to relax and it's only getting better. It's an amazing group [of players].
"The Scottish game suits me really well. I think the games that I've played have been every thing I've expected. I still need to improve, I'm only 21 years old I'm working on that every day and it's up to me to keep that going and improving.
"I don't really feel pressure, I just want to perform and help the team. The most important thing is that the team is winning. I just want to enjoy my football and that's what I'm doing here."
