Coupled with Greg Taylor’s injury, and the 26 year-old’s uncertain future at Celtic Park, Valle has made that left-back position his own, and will be an important player for Brendan Rodgers heading into matches in three separate competitions over the next week.

The on-loan Barcelona man combined with his fellow full-back Alistair Johnston for Celtic’s second in North Lanarkshire on Sunday afternoon. Valle’s exquisite cross was met onto the head of the Canadian who bulleted home for his third league goal of the campaign. Two more than theRangers have scored away from home so far this season…

Brendan Rodgers’ defence and goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel have taken a lot of praise, and quite rightfully so. Back-to-back clean sheets against Atalanta and then Motherwell take the tally of competitive shutouts to eight in 14 matches.

For his rewards in setting up a goal, and churning out another solid defensive performance, Valle has been named in the SPFL team of the week.

Meanwhile, Celtic’s left-back is joined by two other Scottish Premiership players Noah Chilvers [Ross County] and Shayden Morris [Aberdeen].

Star man in the lineup is Hamilton Accies Oli Shaw who netted a seven minute hat-trick against Dougie Imrie’s Greenock Morton in the Scottish Championship on Saturday.

The SPFL TOTW in full:

Darren Jamiseon [Stenhousemuir] Dylan Watret [Ayr United] Michael Nottingham [Livingston] Tommy Muir [Annan Athletic] Alex Valle [Celtic] James Hilton [Dumbarton] Jason Holt [St Johnstone] Noah Chilvers [Ross County] Shayden Morris [Aberdeen] Oli Shaw [Hamilton Accies]
