Celtic, Recent FormWhen Celtic last played in the league they faced St Mirren and produced an outstanding 3-0 away win. Their share of possession in that meeting was 73%, while racking up 24 shots along the way, 11 of which were on target, in contrast to St Mirren, who had 3 shots on goal with 0 on target.
Manager Brendan Rodgers will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 11 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 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
Winning 4 and being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 league games at Celtic Park, marks a good spell of home form for Celtic.
Ross County, Recent FormDerek Adams will have some work to do building up his players after their 3-0 home thrashing at the hands of Aberdeen. In that game they had 53% possession and managed 5 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Aberdeen who had 16 attempts and 7 on target.
Adams will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games, and this season overall, they've failed to score in 10 of their 19 games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 7 games.
The last time these two teams met Celtic enforced their superiority over Ross County with a comfortable 0-3 win.
Celtic have scored in each of their last 13 games at home in the league against The Staggies. We have seen plenty of goals from The Bhoys when they play at home against Ross County. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 10 goals, which is an average of 3.33 goals per game.
It's been a long time since Ross County has enjoyed a trip to Celtic Park in the league, with Celtic having won each of their last 10 meetings there and not lost to the visitors in 17 games.
Celtic player David Turnbull will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against Ross County, having scored 3 goals in the last 3 league meetings between the teams at Celtic Park.
With only Cameron Carter-Vickers (Hamstring) and James McCarthy (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Brendan Rodgers will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Derek Adams has a number of injury concerns in his Ross County squad to contend with: Ross Callachan (Cruciate ligament), Ben Paton (Knee) and Dylan Smith (Ankle)
