The Hoops return to Premiership action after the International break, when they welcome the visit of 8th placed Motherwell on Saturday afternoon, as they look to extend the gap at the top of the table to 11 points.

And Brendan Rodgers will want to have his team quickly rediscover the sort of form that they displayed when dispatching Aberdeen to the tune of 6-0 just before the break.

This will be crucial for the Hoops to immediately get straight back into the groove for what is a tricky run through December, with games coming thick and fast as...​

Celtic will line up on Sunday afternoon to take on the visit of Barry Robson's Aberdeen side, as they seek to retain their grip at the summit of the Premiership table.

The Bhoys will need to shake off the chastizing Champions League defeat by Atletico Madrid on Tuesday, after Daizen Maeda's first half red card saw any semblence of game plan thrown out the window, ultimately resulting in a heavy 6-0 hammering.

The disappointment of the Champions League aside, Celtic remain undefeated in the League, currently sitting 8 points clear at the top of the table, albeit having played a game more than second placed Sevco.

The Hoops travel to the Spanish Capital to take on Atletico Madrid on Tuesday evening, in what could be a pivitol night in the Champions League for all 4 clubs in Group E.

The Bhoys will be all too well aware that their efforts a fortnight ago in Glasgow will need to be matched once again if they are to keep in touch with the rest of the Group in the hunt for continued European football in the new year.

After three games, Feyenoord lead the Group on 6 points, followed by Atletico on 5 and Lazio on 4. But...​

All eyes will be on the Hoops this Saturday as they travel north into the Highlands in an effort to go 8 points clear at the top of the Premiership, when they take on Ross County this Saturday lunchtime.

Due to the League Cup Semi-Finals this weekend, the door is opened for Brendan Rodgers' side to steal a march on their Glasgow rivals and to make that opportunity count by putting that additional distance between them with another win in the league.

While Celtic sit top and remain undefeated, it's fair to say there...​

May: Callum McGregor scores a late equalizer against St Mirren when these sides last met

The Hoops are at home for the visit of third placed St Mirren on Wednesday, looking to at the very least maintain the 5 point lead at the top of the Premiership table.

Celtic will need to shake off what was an underwhelming performance in the goalless draw away at Hibernian at the weekend. Despite a late flurry of attack in the dying minutes, the Bhoys lacked energy, creativity and a cutting edge for much of the match.

Brendan Rodgers and his team will know that they are capable of so much better - even if...​
