Celtic have loved nothing better than playing Hearts in recent years and they should be able to resume normal service following a blip.

Brendan Rodgers' side are in a crisis by their standards - they have won only two of their last five games in all competitions.

But they relish their trips to Tynecastle and have dished out some fearful batterings in Edinburgh.

Hearts have picked up, but it's a huge test for Craig Levein's side. His line-up is crammed full of teenagers and they could be overrun by a hungry Hoops side.

Recommendation
Celtic & over 2.5 goals
1pt Evs general
