The highly anticipated match between Celtic and Kilmarnock is almost upon us, and while fans are eagerly awaiting the football showdown, the spotlight seems to be piercing through injuries more than anything else.

All eyes will be on Wright as he tries to cement his place in a defense that will be severely tested against Celtic’s attacking prowess.

In a further twist, Danny Armstrong—another crucial cog in the Kilmarnock machine—is set to miss the game after sustaining a hamstring injury.
