Celtic host Hibernian in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday evening. The Hoops defeated St. Johnstone by three goals to one on Sunday despite a shaky beginning to the game.
In this one, manager Brendan Rodgers will be expecting a start that contrasts that of Sunday’s. Ahead of the game, CeltsAreHere tells you everything you need to know.
Where and When
Celtic face Hibs this Wednesday the 6th of December at 7.45 pm UK time at Parkhead.
Who Is In Charge?
In the middle of this one is John Beaton. He refereed a Celtic game at the beginning of November, with him taking charge of the champions’ 2-1 win over St. Mirren.
TV, Stream, and PPV
This match is not on mainstream television. It is, however, on pay-per-view for supporters inside the UK and Ireland for £12.99 via Celtic TV. For those outside of the UK and Ireland, the match will be live on Celtic TV.
Team News
Brendan Rodgers recently confirmed that Luis Palma is fine for this one after limping off against St. Johnstone. Elsewhere in the team, there are no fresh concerns.
The Celtic boss did give updates on the likes of Liel Abada, Daizen Maeda, and Reo Hatate yesterday. They won’t be in contention for this one, however.
From Wednesday night’s game, nothing but three points will be acceptable for the champions. A win could see the Bhoys maintain, or potentially even extend, their eight-point lead at the top of the table as we get on with one of the busiest periods in the footballing calendar.
