Celtic return to domestic matters with a visit to third-placed Aberdeen (kick-off 1.30pm).

Skipper Scott Brown is available from a recent suspension but the visitors are still missing a whole host of players.

Dedryck Boyata, Nir Bitton, Patrick Roberts, Leigh Griffiths, Stuart Armstrong, Craig Gordon, Jonny Hayes and Marvin Compper are all currently sidelined.

The Dons are without suspended captain Graeme Shinnie, while goalkeeper Joe Lewis remains a long-term casualty due to a knee injury.

On loan midfielder Ryan Christie is also ineligible to face his parent club.

The Hoops have a six-point advantage over second-placed Rangers and with a game in hand, with their latest opponents a further three points behind.
