Celtic take on Aberdeen at Pittodrie tonight (Wednesday), in what is set to be an entertaining evening of football in the Scottish Premiership
The last time the sides met was in Scottish League Cup fare, when Jimmy Thelin’s men suffered a 6-0 demolition at the hands of the Hoops.
Before that, October’s pulsating encounter at Celtic Park saw Aberdeen come back from 2-0 down to claim a point.
Brendan Rodgers’ side have been relentless in their mission to retain the Scottish Premiership title this season - they remain unbeaten in the league after 13 games having swatted aside Ross County with a 5-0 win in their last outing.
After an incredible start to their campaign, the Dons’ unbeaten league run was brought to an end with defeat to St Mirren a fortnight ago. Thelin’s side have continued to stutter since, dropping points in draws away to Hibs and Hearts.
Victory at Pittodrie would send the Hoops seven points clear at the top with a game in hand.
