Celtic host Rangers in a huge top-of-the-table Scottish Premiership clash on Saturday at lunchtime, with the Bhoys holding a three-point advantage and a superior goal difference.
A victory for the hosts would give them a six-point lead with two games to play, and a significant goal difference. While Rangers have faltered a bit with a draw and a defeat following the 3-3 Old Firm draw in early April, Celtic have won their past three games to regain control of the title race.
The Celts clinched a 3-0 victory against third-placed Heart of Midlothian last weekend and will be confident of securing a victory in front of their oldest enemy in front of their home fans.
A run of just one win in five league games has seen Philippe Clement's side lose ground to their closest rivals. Anything but a win at Celtic Park would realistically spell the end of their Premiership title hopes for yet another season.
