Celtic will look to keep the pressure on at the top of the Scottish Premiership when they face Dundee United at Tannadice this Sunday (kick-off: 12.30pm).
Having closed the gap on league leaders Hearts to just two points with a 3-1 win over Motherwell last weekend, Martin O’Neill’s men could return to the summit for the first time since September, if the Jambos drop points against Dundee at Tynecastle 24 hours earlier.
Their hosts, Dundee United, will be desperate to bounce back after conceding two injury-time goals to draw 2-2 with rivals Dundee last Sunday. On a run of just one win from their last five league games, United head coach Jim Goodwin will be hoping for a repeat of the performance the last time the two sides met in the City of Discovery, when Dundee United ran out 2-1 winners in December.
