Striker Gary Hooper looks set to start for Celtic as Neil Lennon's team take on Barcelona at the Nou Camp in the Champions League tonight.

Hooper, born in Loughton, has been in a rich vein of form of late, scoring eight goals in the last six games.

The 24-year-old was singled out for praise by Lennon in Celtic's last Champions League match which they beat Spartak Moscow 3-2 away from home.

Hooper scored one and set up another in the win, prompting his boss to repeat the call for Hooper to receive a call-up to the England squad.

That call did not come however and Hooper will be hoping to add to his case by notching against the Catalan giants this evening.

Celtic currently sit second in Group G, two points behind Barcelona and three ahead of Benfica.

Kick off at the Nou Camp is 7.45pm.
