Neil Lennon’s Celtic will face Hibernian this afternoon.
Celtic will be looking to maintain their good run of form this afternoon when they take on Hibernian away from home at Easter Road in the Scottish Premiership.
Neil Lennon’s side will not win the league title today as second-placed and bitter Old Firm rivals Rangers won on Saturday afternoon.
However, it is only a matter of time before Celtic clinch the Scottish Premiership title for the eighth season in a row.
This is how Celtic will line up against Hibernian away from home at Easter Road in the Scottish Premiership this afternoon:
Meanwhile, Hibernian manager Paul Heckingbottom has urged his players to believe in themselves ahead of the match against Celtic.
The former Leeds United head coach has stated that everyone in Scotland, except Rangers, are resigned to losing Celtic due to the quality of players and the strength of the squad they have.
Heckingbottom wants his Hibernian players to rise above that and not be scared of Celtic, and has urged them to win this afternoon’s match.
Heckingbottom told The Scottish Sun: “I’ve heard ‘Celtic are the best team, they’ll win the league’ and barring Rangers, everyone sort of accepts that.
“You speak to people in the game, the media, fans, as someone who’s come up into the league, there’s just this ‘Aw, it’s Celtic again, we’re not taking points there’.
“It’s in people’s language. I get what they mean but there’s that many people say it, everyone starts to believe it.
“That’s been the biggest thing I’ve seen since I came up, with Celtic in particular, but also Rangers to a lesser extent. Is it embedded in our squad? I hope not.”
