Celtic’s best XI this season: Top performing players for Hoops according to WhoScored ratings - gallery

Scottish giants Celtic are on course to win the Premiership title for the third consecutive season.

The Hoops won back-to-back titles under Ange Postecoglou and are now managed by former manager Brendan Rodgers who is targeting his third title as Celtic boss in his second stint at the club.

Celtic stormed into the lead at the start of the season as rivals Rangers stumbled - suffering three defeats in their opening seven matches.

Team selections will be critical for Rodgers going forward - but what is his best Celtic lineup based on performances so far?

Here we take a look Celtic’s best performing starting XI this season based on analysis from data experts at WhoScored.com.
