  1. Hibs' uphill task

    Hibernian v Celtic (15:00)

    Opponents without a manager and with only three wins in 12 outings, most clever money will be on a Celtic victory at Hampden considering they have won their previous six outings.

    Indeed, the Glasgow side's only two defeats in their last 19 outings since losing away to Livingston in September have both come at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League.

    However, Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou does have his own problems with injuries and several of his key players are either missing or doubtful for the big game. We're still waiting for the line-ups to be announced, so stay with us for details.
