    Hibernian 1-0 Celtic

    Celtic are enjoying around 60% of possession but they are yet to seriously test home goalkeeper Ofir Marciano.

    A rare slip from Ryan Porteous allows James Forrest to scurry in from the right flank but his low cross is cut out by Efe Ambrose.

    Hibs make a mess of clearing up in their own penalty area but James Forrest can't punish the moment of laxness as the Celtic winger blazes a shot high over the crossbar.

    Hibs are leaving a real presence up the pitch. When the ball goes forward you've got three guys to deal with. It's not allowing the Celtic centre-backs time to get the ball down

    It's two against two as Florian Kamberi bustles forward with Daryl Horgan for company but the Hibs striker goes alone and runs into trouble on the edge of the Celtic box.

    It's the Ryan Porteous show again as the Hibs defender does great work to slide in and cut out a low cross from James Forrest that was heading for the feet of Odsonne Edouard in front of goal.

    Celtic's first corner of the day is quickly followed by a second, which is hugely over-hit by Emilio Izaguirre.

    Hibernian 1-0 Celtic

    Some slick passing from Celtic opens up room for Odsonne Edouard to have a shot at goal from 20 yards but the striker's shot sails just over.

    Ryan Porteous stands firm again, this time blocking a low shot from Scott Sinclair after a loose pass from Efe Ambrose gifts possession to Celtic.

    It's easy to forget that Ryan Porteous is only 19. The Hibs defender is a big unit and plays with a ferocious intensity. He's already made three timely interceptions at the back as Celtic look for an opening.

    Vykintas Slivka's composed, curling shot is the difference so far.

    Hibernian 1-0 Celtic

    Stevie Mallan whips a long-range free kick round the Celtic defensive wall and goalkeeper Craig Gordon has to look lively to push it away.

    Mallan can really hit those with some venom.

    It's been a great start to this game. Real end to end played at a great tempo. I can see more goals in this

    The visitors seeing more of the ball now as they pop a few passes around but Hibs are working hard as striker Florian Kamberi chases back deep into his own half to force an error from advancing defender Jozo Simunovic.

    Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham lines up a free kick 25 yards out but can only batter his shot into the defensive wall.

    Neil Lennon's men are fired up for this one as they continue to press. Left-back Lewis Stevenson is bombing forward and Celtic's Scott Sinclair is looking a bit bewildered in an unfamiliar wide right position.

    What a start for the hosts!

    Oli Shaw finds Vykintas Slivka cutting in from the right and the Lithuanian dances past Jozo Simunovic to slide a shot into the far corner.

    Fingers crossed for more high-scoring drama today...

  20. Old Firm allocation halved at Easter Roadpublished at 12:28 Greenwich Mean Time 16 December 2018

    Hibernian v Celtic (12:30)

    Celtic fans normally get the entire South Stand at Easter Road but the visitors have only been given half of those tickets today.

    The three home stands are sold out it will surely mean a financial hit for Hibs. I think they are doing the same for the visit of Rangers on Wednesday.
