Another win away from home at McDiarmid Park will do the world of good for Brendan Rodgers and his side as he looks to add to Celtic’s 3-0 win over Hearts from last week.

Celtic have put in incredible performances in Perth over the years and it can be banked that the manager will be hopeful of another to see off Simo Valakari and his troops to let them know what’s also coming in the Scottish Cup semi-final in a week or two.
