Scottish Premiership
Sky Sports Football, 12.30pm Saturday

Hibernian can make history by finally ending Celtic's 67-game unbeaten domestic run at an enormous price.

The Easter Road side have a nice habit of raising their game for the bigger matches and they have already gained draws at Parkhead and Ibrox this season.

With Hibs priced up at dismissive odds of 6-1, Neil Lennon will be desperate to put one over his former club.

Former Celtic striker Anthony Stokes will have a point to prove to Lennon after he was disciplined recently for off-field matters and John McGinnis is back from suspension.

Celtic were well below par in midweek when they allowed Anderlecht to defeat them in Glasgow in a Champions League setback and Hibs will relish the challenge of ending the champions' incredible run.

Recommendation
Hibernian
1pt 6-1 Hills, Coral

Key stat
Hibs have only twice failed to score at Easter Road in the whole of 2017.

Team news
Hibernian
David Gray and Liam Fontaine are sidelined.

Celtic
Scott Sinclair will have a fitness test for the Hoops and Patrick Roberts is out until after Christmas.
