    Tough game on paper but will likely be another run of the mill home game where they camp in and offer very little in an attacking sense.

    We do need to be more clinical than we were tonight though as they’ll likely be more difficult to break down than Hearts were.

    Prediction: 2-0 Edouard, Christie.

    Forster
    Frimpong Julien Ajer Taylor
    Broony McGregor
    Forrest Christie Johnston*
    Edouard
    *If fit

    No doubt be up against 10 men behind the ball. Early goal will help greatly. Need to be more clinical than we were tonight.

    Celtic 3 - 1 Aberdeen

    They actually play a lot better against us at home than they do at Pittodrie, no idea why. They won't camp in like the other teams and they aren't as good going forward as hibs so i think we'll win 2 or 3-0. I'd go with this team

    Forster
    Frimpong Jullien Biton Taylor
    Brown Mcgregor
    Ntcham
    Christie Edouard Forrest

    I'd give Ajer a rest for this one, he's looked a bit ropey recently, hopefully it's just fatigue. I'm hoping Mikey is back on the bench but i wouldn't start him, get him playing for the st mirren game and ready for the huns. Bring Bolingoli, Griffiths and Johnston on as subs.

    Rogic or Mikey
    Christie

    Eddy

    Just keeping it fresh leaving shooders out for the game and getting Rogic in who can do damage usually against the sheep for Ntcham (which is maybe harsh)..

    Mikey to get some sort of run out..

    Think we'll damage them. They've looked really open especially in midfield this season playing full backs there and a pishy defence..

    Give them all a rest apart from Forster. Still get a 1 nil with the big man scoring an overhead kick from his own corner

    Yes, has been a tad ropey recently, could me mental fatigue.
    Don't think it would weaken us too much if Bitton were to replace him.

    Eddy looked knackered yesterday, only 2 days between games, would start him on bench. The way we are performing recently, don't reckon game will be done at HT, similar type games to Hearts & Hibs games.
    We so need him for Huns game- I would be tempted to rest Eddy, Brown and Christie over the next 2 games, as I see these 3 as our most influential.

    For sure, and I think we have the depth to 'get away' with it. Starting Griff would do him the world of good too.


    I've given up on getting streams for home games - is there any way I can listen on the radio in Ireland? BBC Scotland wouldn't work for me last weekend.

    Aberdeen are a shadow of the team they were 2-3 years ago now and away from home their form isn't great. I expect Celtic's class to shine through again and our top players to give them a good doing.

    First name on the team-sheet for me, he's on the form of his life.

    Look at our 2nd goal last night, anticipates the possibility of a bad touch by the Hearts player, presses him at the right time, we break 3 on 2 and get the goal.

    Exactly why he needs a rest now and again!
