Celtic are currently seven points ahead at the top of the table.
Speaking to the club’s official website, Celtic captain Scott Brown has urged his teammates to simply take things one game at a time this season.
The Hoops are entering an extremely busy period of the season, with them set to play 15 games before the turn of the year.
They will compete in the Scottish Premiership and the Champions League, as well as a Scottish League Cup final with Aberdeen between now and the end of December.
Naturally some have started to plan ahead, specifically for that final with Aberdeen as well as a crucial clash with Borussia Monchengladbach in Germany.
Brown, though, has insisted that they must take things on a game-by-game basis or their season could fall apart.
“We just go a game at a time,” he told the club’s official website.
“If you start thinking that way [too far ahead] it all falls apart early doors and we can’t afford that to happen.”
“We have to continue the momentum and keep it going as long as we possibly can.”
First up for Brendan Rodgers’ team is the clash with Aberdeen in Saturday’s early kick-off.
A win over the Dons, who currently sit behind Celtic in second place, could extend the Hoops lead at the top of the table to 10 points.
That would be a commanding gap and allow them to look slightly ahead, despite Brown’s insistence they should not do so.
