Celtic’s Injury Woes

Celtic travel to Tyncastle on Sunday for a noon kick off against table toppers Hearts. Hearts have had a week to prepare for the top of the table clash. Celtic on the other hand played in the Europa League at home to Austrian champions, Sturm Graz on Thursday Night.

Liam Scales equalised for Celtic in the second half after going in at half time 1-0 down to the visitors. Benjamin Nygren playing out on the right wing got the winner after he missed a number of earlier chances.

Everyone connected with Celtic needed that win to lift our spirits and get our first win in the competition and now hopefully we can kick off in Edinburgh and take something from the game.

The visiting fans from Austria never stopped singing for the whole game and created plenty of atmosphere in the away corner and mixed with Celtic fans after the game in pubs and hotel bars with no trouble reported.

Celtic fans have only been given 500 tickets for Sunday’s game and with Hearts off to such a good start the game should be a sell out. It’s a tough assignment after Thursday night and the early exits of Iheanacho and Johnston added to Celtic’s injury woes along with CCV who has been ruled out till March.

The game will be shown live on Sky Sports and streamed by Celtic TV.
