Shaun Maloney - who returned to Celtic Park last week after an 18-month spell at Aston Villa - is expected to start.
The Hoops manager insisted the imminent visit of Rangers overshadows the excitement of the Champions League draw, which saw Celtic placed in Group E alongside holders Manchester United.
