Celtic will hand late fitness tests to Georgios Samaras and Efe Ambrose ahead of the Champions League clash with Juventus tonight.

Samaras is battling to recover from a hamstring injury and will be given every chance by Neil Lennon to prove his fitness ahead of the Parkhead showdown.

Ambrose, meanwhile, played for Nigeria in their African Nations Cup final win over Burkina Faso on Sunday night and did not arrive back in Glasgow until this morning.

Elsewhere, left-back Emilio Izaguirre has recovered from a knee injury and could figure, while winger James Forrest is fit again following a hamstring problem.
