Celtic is set to face Aberdeen at Pittodrie Stadium on Wednesday evening in an important Scottish Premiership match.
Martin O’Neill’s team aims to reduce the gap to the league leaders and keep their championship hopes alive.
Celtic currently sits in third place with 55 points from 28 matches, trailing Hearts by eight points. However, a win in this game could bring them within five points. They enter this match following a thrilling 2-2 draw against Rangers, thanks to a last-minute equalizer from Reo Hatate.
