Thomas Rogne is a major doubt after he suffered a thigh injury while playing for Norway's under-21s, while Scott Brown will have a late fitness test on his ankle injury.

James Forrest has recovered from illness and Israeli midfielder Beram Kayal could make his debut for Neil Lennon's side.

Richie Foran will miss the first three weeks of the season for Caley, but fellow Irishman Johnny Hayes is pushing to feature.
