Celtic Return to Action

Celtic return to action on Saturday after the international break and let’s hope they pick up where they left off. Brendan Rodger’s team have impressed since pre-season and dispatched the rangers just before the break in style.

3-0 and it should have been more the fall out from the defeat has really hurt the fans of the new team. Captain Tav has been taking abuse from his loyal legion of fans.

Celtic sit on top of the table with 12 points after wins also over Kilmarnock at home on Flag Day and on the road in Paisley and Edinburgh. The Scottish Champions have yet to concede a goal. Aberdeen have also took maximum points but Celtic have a superior goal difference.

Hearts took points off the rangers on the opening day of the season but they have struggled since and have have lost all their other games in the league today and are anchored at the bottom of the table with Kilmarnock on 1 point.

The game is sold out and will be streamed live on Celtic TV.

It’s a busy week for Celtic with the Champions League campaign getting under way against Slovan Bratislava on Wednesday night. Brendan Rodgers may look to rotate the squad ahead of the first European night and Celtic Park.

The squad has been strengthened during the transfer window with a busy deadline day and competition for places has been turned up a notch. Fringe players may also get a chance to impress the manager when Falkirk come to Celtic Park the following Sunday for the league cup quarter final.
