Celtic’s Scottish Premiership post-split campaign begins with a home game against Falkirk.

The Hoops are third in the table but hold the cards in the title race by knowing that if they win all five games, they will be crowned champions.

Falkirk have been one of the surprise packages in the league this season, with Neil Lennon tipping John McGlynn as a contender for the Celtic job, and it won’t be an easy task.

With that, 67 Hail Hail has everything you need to know about this weekend’s fixture.

Celtic team news

Liam Scales is back in contention after he was forced to miss the Scottish Cup semi-final win against St Mirren due to suspension.

Fans have also called for Kelechi Iheanacho to start after his impact off the bench and Anthony Ralston also deserves to keep his spot following an impressive display at Hampden Park.

Callum Osmand and Alistair Johnstone played in a friendly behind closed doors in midweek, but may need a little longer before being named in the squad again.
