The pitch is actually playing really well. The players are passing the ball around really tidily and really quickly. It's having no affect on the game whatsoever.

Callum McGregor is set up by Leigh Griffiths, and his effort is deflected for a corner. Griffiths take it and find Jonny Hayes, whose thumping header goes over the top.

It was a tight angle, but you'd want Sinclair to hit the target. This is some of the best link-up between Tierney and Sinclair I've seen for a long while.

Simunovic is erratic. This is a big test for him today. He's handled it OK, as have Celtic. I fully expected this was the type of game we were going to get. Really, it depends how Celtic defend. They've enough going forward - it's just handling that defensive situation, and it's not easy against two big guys.

Better from Celtic. A slick ball puts Scott Sinclair clear on the left of the box, but the winger's effort flies across the face of the Hearts goal.

Hearts looking extremely positive. They’re getting the ball into the box at every opportunity and not letting Celtic breathe when they have possession. The stats show they've had five shots to Celtic's none.

Sinclair has been positive for the visitors but Kouassi looks lost at times.

Garuccio scored a sensational goal against Inverness from a free-kick here a couple of weeks ago, but on that side of the box, you'd expect Lafferty - a right-footer - to go around it.

Zlamal kicks everything long up to the front two. Jack Hendry tried to be over-physical on Lafferty and that's what gave away the free-kick.

Kyle Lafferty is brought down on the edge of the box, in a central area. Left-back Ben Garuccio steps up to take the free-kick, but drives it straight into the wall.

Straight up to the other end, and Steven Naismith goes down under a challenge from Jozo Simunovic. No penalty rules referee John Beaton.

Nimble footwork from Ikpeazu on the left, wee step-over, got half-a-yard on Hendry. It was just the fact that Lafferty was stretching a bit too much, it was never going to trouble Craig Gordon.

Scott Sinclair gets to the left byline and his cross appears to hit the hand of John Souttar as he deflects it for a corner. A bit of a shout for handball, but not too vociferous given how close Souttar was.

Good cross from Uche Ikpeazu from the left touchline, who finds the head of Kyle Lafferty at the back post. But the striker's effort back across goal is comfortable for Craig Gordon.

Going with a straight leg, high up, with studs showing - really, really stupid from Kyle Lafferty to get himself booked at this early stage.

Hearts striker Kyle Lafferty clatters into Mikael Lustig, and picks up the first booking of the afternoon.

Scott Sinclair needs to show, in these games, he can be the big man, the leader, especially when there have been so many changes. He's used to the environment now - get on the ball and go and make things happen.

Positive attacking run from Scott Sinclair - looking far more like the player who starred in his first season at Celtic, rather than the one who flattered to deceive at times last term.

Inside the first five minutes or so, it's sensible to try and turn Hearts, get the ball into the final third. The first ball Celtic had, they threw it forward and Leigh Griffiths almost got in behind.

Next time, Eboue Kouassi has a couple of touches in the middle of the park and gives it away. He won't be thankful taking the ball when it's so tight, so early in the game.

Jonny Hayes, starting just his 10th game for Celtic, has taken up station on the right flank, with Scott Sinclair on the left, supporting Leigh Griffiths up front.
