Kick-off: 12:30pm, Saturday 23rd September 2023
Celtic are looking to successfully defend their 2022/23 Scottish Premiership title and they have certainly got things off to a fine start with two points separating them from their closest challengers after just five rounds of fixtures. The Hoops are the only top-flight side to have reached double figures in terms of total goals scored while they have also been concentrating on the defensive side of their game with just three goals leaked whilst on league duty this term. Nevertheless, manager Brendan Rodgers will be demanding a far more thorough performance than the one which resulted in a 2-0 defeat to Feyenoord in the Champions league earlier this week.
Livingston have been very much a mixed bag this season so far, the West Lothian outfit currently sitting 7th in the Premiership table with just a single win to their name. David Martindale’s side have lacked a clinical edge thus far but they have managed to avoid defeat in each of their last four outings, the side proving difficult to break down. On home soil the Lions have struggled this term and as yet they are still in search of a Scottish Premiership victory at the Tony Macaroni Arena. Three points this weekend could lift them into fourth position in the table should other results go their way although while we envisage the hosts putting up a strong test against Celtic, the visitors have more than enough quality within the ranks to take all three points without coming under too much pressure at the back.
