 Magnus Hedman returned for Celtic against Inverness on Saturday |
Magnus Hedman and David Marshall meet in opposition at Easter Road on Wednesday, playing for their countries and the Celtic goalkeeper's jersey. Sweden's Hedman took over against Inverness Caley Thistle, but Scotland's Marshall wants his place back.
"It could come down to how we both perform on the night," he said ahead of Saturday's Ibrox meeting with Rangers.
Hedman said: "It was important to get a clean sheet. Now I am hoping to play for Sweden and for Celtic."
The 31-year-old Swede was making his first Celtic appearance in 11 months following a nightmare outing in the Champions League.
"It was important to play at the weekend against Inverness, because my last performance in Lyon has been dragging on for a long time," he said.
"There are two guys ahead of me - David Marshall and Rob Douglas - so I want to try and take every chance that I get. I haven't even thought about moving at all. "There are too many players about these days who want to change clubs because they feel that the grass is greener on the other side.
"I have a great life here with my family and I am not going to just give up. It is hard, but I am determined to succeed here."
Marshall has been given his chance to shine at international level after caretaker coach decided to rest Hearts youngster Craig Gordon.
"Magnus has told me that he will be starting for Sweden, so it will be good to play against him as I have not done that before," said the 19-year-old.
"We get on great and I will swap shirts with him at the end. There are no hard feelings between us.
"I have not had too much banter with Magnus as he has been away following the birth of his baby.
"It will be good to see him and I will wish him all the best, but hopefully it works out for Scotland.
"It will be good for the manager to see both of us at the same time and see how we are performing and see how confident we are.
"I will focus on my own game and getting a good result for Scotland and take it from there."
Marshall insists that his confidence has not been dented by being dropped for Celtic.
"I knew it was going to come at some stage," he said.
"I am man enough to own up when I make mistakes. I know when I have not done well - I am not daft.
"Getting a game for Scotland gives you a lot of confidence and belief in your ability.
"It has not hurt me too much as I still feel confident enough to go and perform."
