Celtic go into the Glasgow Derby with an impressive home record in the league.
Since the start of last season Celtic have now played 19 home league games which is the equivalent to a full season for home matches at Celtic Park.
We have won 18 out of those 19 games.
The only game Celtic didn’t win was against Sevco in December.
Celtic also averaged over 3 goals a game and scored 64 goals and conceded only 10 goals in those 19 home games.

Decent but the blip is the one that matters really.

Think the one coming up is going to be an interesting and fascinating one. Sevco have hit the ground running and Celtic aren't yet firing on all cylinders. Slippy will have his players fired up and just hope Celtic can be settled for this match.

i actualy don't care about that blip its whos on top at the end of day who who wins the league. is all that matter to me.
they thought they where to big to fail and they are still failing.
the garbage papers big it up and talk crap. i stopped watching this game years ago i like all the banter but all the other bells and whistles bore me.

If we beat them and win our game in hand the old deficiency feelings will start creeping into there play and the pressure could tell.

Last two seasons they have held it together until after New Year and I fully expect the same thing as that's when our experience, class and professionalism under pressure always tells.

Wouldn't be surprised at all if Griff plays a significant part in this. Lenny will have him all fired up.

Mally
There was a few IFS in there
We are not primed for sevco yet, just my opinion
If we played them. tomotrow we would lose IMVHO
Ajeti would be out
Griff not ready
Klimala not really featuring
And eddy misfiring
Issues on the left and a lack of stability at central defense
And so we have work to do to BE ready, but that's just my opinion
Sarajevo first up.

Lubo, I have also criticised the 3-5-2 this season but the facts are Celtic are still unbeaten playing that system under Lennon.
In the Copenhagen and Ferencvaros defeats Celtic played a 4-2-3-1 formation.
I actually think we are playing Sevco at a good time due to them having injury problems. A few of their players are either injured or will be just back from injury.
They don’t have a settled goalkeeper and Morelos isn’t the same player we faced in December and the same could be said for Davis.
Hagi is also played out of position wide on the right.
Celtic average over 3 goals per game playing our attacking system and I think Lennon should keep it the same and let them worry about us.

interesting, as always
J hope you are right
J hope I am way off
Equally, there's the mentality dimension and the manager's mantra and underlying confidence
NL will have a big role as he sets the tone . I still think we need a spark and a signing and decent form pre sevco.

Think both sides would be happy with a point. Its more of a must not lose for both teams.
