CELTIC host Hibs at Parkhead this evening in a return to domestic action.
It is the first meeting between the sides since Kyogo Furuhashi’s brace at Hampden last month secured the Scottish League Cup for the Hoops.
Hibs come into the game in fine form however with new boss Shaun Maloney winning his first two games in charge against Aberdeen and Dundee United respectively.
Celtic meanwhile will look to continue an unbeaten streak in the league which began back in late September. A win would see them close the gap on their Glasgow rivals to 3 points.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
