St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic
Celtic, 62 games unbeaten domestically, lead at the break courtesy of Scott Sinclair's smart finish from Stuart Armstrong's corner. The visitors have largely dominated in Perth as Tommy Wright's troops have struggled to pose a threat to Craig Gordon.
That's now 501 minutes since St Johnstone scored in a league match...

St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic
Moussa Dembele must score! No, he heads wide. James Forrest scuttles past and beyond St Johnstone's back-tracking defence before whipping a menacing cross back across goal. Dembele rises to meet the delivery but heads wide with Zander Clark's goal at his mercy.
St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic
Zander Clark is equal to another Celtic attack, this time denying Stuart Armstrong as he gathers his 25-yard strike. Brendan Rodgers will be delighted with how his side have lifted the tempo; Tommy Wright will be hoping his side can offer Celtic a defensive headache.
