Celtic will aim to maintain their commanding 13 point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership as they make the short journey to Paisley to face St Mirren at the SMiSA Stadium (kick off: 5.30pm).
Brendan Rodgers’ side responded to last weekend’s rare defeat at Hibs by demolishing third-placed Aberdeen 5-1 at Celtic Park on Wednesday, and will be eyeing another big win against St Mirren as they edge closer to a fourth successive title win.
The hosts will be hoping they can follow in the footsteps of David Gray’s Hibs though as they look to respond to a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Hearts at Tynecastle on Wednesday night.
Both sides are edging closer to having a fully fit squad available, although some players are expected to miss the game on Saturday with injury.
