CELTIC travel to Perth today to take on St Johnstone in the lunchtime kick-off.
The Hoops will be aiming to get back to winning ways after defeat in the Champions League on Wednesday.
The Scottish champions hold a slender two-point lead over Rangers at the summit of the Premiership table.
Playing first poses its pressures. However, it is also a chance for the Hoops to open up a gap on their arch rivals - even if it is only for a couple of hours.
ST JOHNSTONE XI: Matthews, Wright, Mitchell, Gordon, Considine, Brown, McGowan, Hallberg, Kucheriavyi, Murphy, Clark
Subs: Parish, May, Crawford, Gallacher, Phillips, Bair, O'Halloran, McLennan, Worthersoon
CELTIC XI: Hart, Ralston, Carter-Vickers, Welsh, Bernabei, O'Riley, Hatate, Abada, Haksabanovic, Jota, Giakoumakis
Subs: Bain, Siegrist, Kyogo, Mooy, McCarthy, Abildgaard, Maeda, Forrest, Juranovic
