Celtic take on Ross County this weekend in the Scottish Premiership at Parkhead and a sixth win on the bounce is at stake against Derek Adams’ side.

Largely, the Hoops’ home record in the Scottish Premiership has stood up to scrutiny this term, with Brendan Rodgers’ men recording eight victories, two draws and a solitary defeat against Heart of Midlothian.

Coming off the back of a comprehensive win over Buckie Thistle in the Scottish Cup, Celtic will be in a positive frame of mind ahead of their clash against the Staggies.

Nicolas Kuhn missed the tie against Highland League opposition; however, the former Germany Under-20 international is expected to be involved on Saturday.

In other news, Cameron Carter-Vickers was also absent in the cup due to a muscle issue which he is looking to overcome.

Taking no chances on the USA international against Buckie Thistle, Rodgers will hope Carter-Vickers will return and be in contention to start at Parkhead.

As excitement builds ahead of the visit of Ross County, who are without a win in their last five, the officiating team for the fixture has now been decided upon by the powers that be.
