Glasgow, Scotland - Scottish Premier League leader Celtic faces a bottom-half Dundee United on Saturday. Celtic 7-1-1 this season looks like an unbeatable opponent for Dundee, who own just one win so far.
Dundee looks like it has little if any chance at an upset and will wait until the last minute to decide if Trinidad and Tobago striker Collin Samuel will face the Celts.
'I won't know how much the traveling has taken out of him so I will wait until Saturday so I can't really make a decision until then,' Dundee United boss Craig Brewster said.
Samuel traveled to play for Trinidad on Wednesday, scored a goal in the team's 2-1 victory, and arrived with Dundee on Friday after a long flight.
Rangers, the second place team in the Scottish Premier, host eighth-place Inverness with a bit of a controversy brewing on its own side.
Goalkeeper Allan McGregor - who has been playing very well for the injured Lionel Letizi - will be dropped in favor of Letizi.
Letizi has recovered from the calf injury that has caused him to miss the last eight matches and will take the pitch as the team's unquestioned number one in net.
'I met with Lionel and Allan and it is my job to make the decision,' Rangers manager Paul Le Guen said.
'Lionel was out with an injury. In this case, it is different. There is competition, but it is different for goaltenders because it is a different position,' he added.
In other games on Saturday, Aberdeen and Kilmarnock will battle for fifth place in the league while Falkirk hosts fourth-place St. Mirren. In a battle of the bottom-feeders, Motherwell will host Dunfermline while Hibernian hosts second-place Hearts on Sunday.
