They're not as good as they were last year, but will still be a very tough game.

Just stick to the plan and see what happens. The way the Celtic fans are right now, an early goal for us could turn the crowd.

Will need to sharpen up a wee bit at the back. A more clinical team could have had a couple against us last night.

But they are there for the taking, especially with their European games in the mix. 

A good test for the boys to see where they are to be honest.

Absolutely nothing to fear. I’ve watched a few of their games this season and they have been rotten. Their new winger is decent but apart from that their main performers clearly do not want to be there. ,Maeda, Hatate etc looks in the huff.

pair that with their toxic support and their tough midweek match and the ridiculous 32mins of silence thing they will be doing against us….. I honestly think we have a chance to turn them over.

32 mins? What’s that about?

This will obviously be our biggest test to date.

Be very ineresting to see how our system holds up against that level of opposition.

Curious to see how Rodgers approaches the game.

Celtic generally like to press high and play the way we do, so the match up could be interesting.

Every chance we might lose, but I expect us to go and play our game and give a good account of ourselves.

Good chance for JBA to test Celtics weakanesses in the advance of a potential Cup Final! 😉😉😉

I kinda feel like this system is more vulnerable when teams play 4-3-3 as they can high press our back line with their forwards.

Rangers did it and we got in a fankle at times.  

Don't think it's a coincidence that was the match where we struggled the most at the back and looked least comfortable playing out.

Missing Welsh in defence and lacking proper firepower up front means any midfield dominance is unlikely to count, even against a Celtic side that’s not at their best. I’d be very happy with a draw.

Was also the first league game of the season to be fair.

I think missing, Just, Slattery and Welsh will be too much for us but you never know. We have still been playing some good football and maybe we will have more space going forward that we can exploit. I expect JBA will have us play our normal game so let’s give it a go and see how we do.

JBA made a cryptic comment about some injured players maybe being available for this game, but no other hints given. If Just is fit, that would certainly help.

Just back would be great but no guarantees he goes straight back into starting xi, said getting better and Charlie cook looking like a great signing once fully match fit

What a player the original one was!! Probably a few young ‘uns on here that might not know that name.

I remember watching Charlie Cooke playing for Chelsea and Scotland. They used to say "when he sold you a dummy, you had to pay to get back into the ground".

Where as my mate's say to stewards every game...."don't let him into ground......he's a dummy" 🤣🤣

I think we stand a better chance of a result against Celtic than we've done for a while because we won't just keep giving them possession every two seconds. Will still be a huge effort to get anything but Id rather face them playing as we are than the usual boot and run we usually play against them. 

This is very very true

I would take another draw right now , hopefully a tiring euro night for them which could keep the unbeaten run going
