Celtic huddle up before the game

Chris Sutton has named Nir Bitton and James Forrest in his Ladbrokes Premiership Team of the Week following Celtic’s 4-2 win over St Johnstone on Saturday.

Goals from Leigh Griffiths, Scott Sinclair and Forrest helped Celtic into a 3-0 lead in a rip-roaring first-half display from Brendan Rodgers’s side.

The Hoops were given a scare in the final seven minutes when Daniel Swanson and Steven MacLean pulled goals back for the hosts, but Ryan Christie made certain of the victory to make it two wins from two for Celtic in the Premiership.

The Bhoys are one point behind Rangers – who have played one game more – at the summit after the Gers left it late to beat Motherwell.

Rangers' Lee Wallace

Kenny Miller grabbed an injury-time winner as Rangers sneaked a 2-1 come-from-behind win at Ibrox, after Harry Forrester cancelled out Scott McDonald’s opener.

And both Old Firm rivals were represented in Sutton’s Team of the Week, with Rangers skipper Lee Wallace included for Mark Warburton’s side.
