Celtic take on Hibernian this weekend in the Scottish Cup as we reach the quarter-final stage of the competition.
The Bhoys are on course for another treble this season with the league still well in our hands as well.
We’ve got plenty to look forward too, then, but Neil Lennon knows more than most that Hibernian can be a tough side to beat and will be well up for this one.
We’re going into it with a few injuries, too, with Lennon revealing Tom Rogic, Callum McGregor and Ryan Christie all remain out:
🗣️ NL: "Tom, Callum and Ryan Christie will be a few weeks until we'll have them back. Dedryck has reacted well to a knock and will be ready for tomorrow." #ScottishCup #HIBCEL

Dedryck Boyata appears in contention, though, and so that is obviously a good thing with the power he brings at the back.
Hibs are on a good run at the moment with Marc McNulty scoring goals on loan from Reading but we should be able to beat them and I firmly expect us to and get into another semi-final.
