Motherwell vs Celtic preview
Celtic again are tasked with extending their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table - for a few hours at least - with the early Saturday game.
Last time out saw them overcome a tricky task at Livingston, made even tougher when Joe Hart was dismissed in the first half.
They'd go on top dominate the second period anyway and ran out 3-0 winners in the end.
Brendan Rodgers' men have the chance to go five clear at the summit - and nine clear of Rangers - before everyone else plays that day.
But it'll be a tricky task against a strong Motherwell side.
Stuart Kettlewell has been delighted with his side's last two performances, despite narrow 1-0 defeats at home to St Mirren and away at Rangers.
They're still in a solid spot in fourth, with ten points from six games.
Their issue? They've not beaten Celtic since 2015.

Motherwell vs Celtic betting tips
Celtic to be winning at 15 mins at 3/1 - CLAIM HERE
A fast start was the cornerstone of Ange Postecoglou's Celtic.
It's not quite been the same this season but Rodgers' men did manage to capitalise on early dominance to lead after 14 minutes at Livingston.
Have scored their fair share of first half goals at Fir Park (five in their last three visits) and can add to that here with an early lead.
Celtic to win 2-1 at 13/2 - CLAIM HERE
They actually managed to be ahead on 15 minutes the last time they visited.
And on that occasion they went on to win 2-1.
With that result coming twice in the last four meetings between the sides (with a 1-1 draw that Celtic thought they should have won amongst that) and a tight game expected, there's plenty of reasons to suspect something similar here.
