It’s official. The reigning champions coming into the 2020/21 Scottish Premiership season have nothing to play for with four games left in the campaign.
Unable to be caught in second, having obviously seen Rangers run away with the title, their last chance at an exciting end to the campaign went with Sunday’s Scottish Cup fourth-round defeat to their rivals at Ibrox.
The decision now for interim boss John Kennedy is whether to make wholesale changes or to stick with the best side available to try and end the season on something of a positive note.
First up is Aberdeen at Pittodrie. The Dons have been in poor form of late but got a boost last weekend in Stephen Glass’ first match in charge with a penalty shoot-out win over Livingston.
The Celtic subs bench for this game is: Hazard, Soro, Griffiths, Murray, Rogic, Montgomery, Laxalt, Dembele, Ralston
And the starting XI is...
