Celtic will look to go level on points with Hearts at the top of the table as they take on Hibs at Easter Road this Sunday (kick-off: 12pm).
Scheduled to play 24 hours before Hearts’ game against Rangers, Martin O’Neill’s men can match the Jambos’ points total with a victory over Hibs as they look to add pressure to their title rivals.
The defending champions will be boosted by their 3-1 win over Falkirk last weekend, though they’ll face a wounded Hibs side desperate to respond after losing 2-1 to rivals Hearts last week in a game that saw them reduced to nine men.
Ahead of the game at Easter Road, The Scotsman has all the early team news.
