With 15 goals scored from their past 6 matches and just 3 conceded, their manager Brendan Rodgers will be more than happy with his team's form of late. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, and overall this season they have recorded 7 clean sheets in 15 games.

With 6 league goals in 6 games at home in Celtic Park, David Turnbull will be feeling confident about hitting the net again in this home encounter.

In that game they had 47% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Aberdeen who had 22 attempts and 5 on target.
Manager Nick Montgomery will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 6 games.

Hibs have lost the last 3 times they've have visited Celtic in the league and have failed to win any of their last 17 encounters at Celtic Park.
