Celtic are clinging on to top spot for now but know they now cannot afford any slip ups.

Their lead at the top has officially vanished and it's just goals scored that is keeping them on top of the pack.

They navigated their way beyond St Mirren in the Scottish Cup last weekend in relative ease and will be hoping the return of their Asian Cup stars will kick them on once more.

For Kilmarnock, they head into three tough fixtures which will determine their successes this season with a guaranteed top-six spot almost in reach.

They sit in fourth and also progressed comfortably into the Scottish Cup quarter finals last week.

They've already beaten Celtic TWICE this season but are long odds to make it an unprecedented third.

Goal difference - and goals scored - is now a huge consideration for Celtic after Rangers joined them at the top.

Scoring goals hasn't come quite as easily to the Hoops, with only six scored in their last four games.

And with both sides holding similar records (Killie only one defeat in 12 games) it could be a tight affair.

There is goals in both of these attacks and Killie have scored in all of their last four meetings with the Hoops.

Maeda's return from international duty could spring some much-needed life into the Celtic attack.

His pace alone could hurt the Killie back line, should they be caught napping or on transition.
