    I have a feeling this game could be make or break for the manager, with a loss here putting him under some serious pressure.

    Hopefully we have Griffiths back, as you only really notice the difference he makes to us going forward when he's not there.

    It's going to be a tough one I think, with us kicking off in 2nd place potentially, even if we do have a game in hand over Aberdeen.

    Won't be easy. I don't think losing this would be curtains for Ronny but the pressure on him would be immense.

    If Griffiths plays I can't see anything other than an easy win for Celtic.

    Juanma being suspended is another positive.

    Will be eagerly awaiting the lineup for this one.

    I've lost the confidence recently to predict comfortable wins, but actually think that's what we'll see here, for us of course! No rhyme nor reason behind it, just a feeling.

    Won't be fit enough for a start yet, if it was up to me he'd have been there all season though.

    Lustig isn't fit enough to play that system for more than an hour or so IMO.

    Stokes got an hour exactly tonight.

    I reckon he'll be involved some how.

    True. That system ask more from the full backs. Is that Janko buck injured or what?

    Get him to ait back then, get Tierney up far more than him. Allan has more than enough quality when passing the ball to find those infront of him, that system relies on play through the middle, not the wings.

    Also, with how much up and down our full backs are up the field just now I don't think it really asks much more.

    That system relies on the FB's for width, though. I genuinely think it'd be a hard shift for Lustig.
