Celtic have won the last five Scottish Premiership titles in a row, and are now aiming to put another run together and make it 10 in a row.
The first step to doing that is winning this season’s title, and they are on track to do so, with the much hyped challenge from rivals Rangers failing to materialise.

Their Champions League involvement has not gone to plan so far, but simply being in the group stages has lifted the mood around the club and that of the players, and helped them play with more freedom in domestic competition.
Celtic lost their first Champions League game 7-0 to Barcelona, while City beat Borussia Moenchengladbach 4-0.
