CELTIC thumped Partick Thistle less than two weeks ago and will hope for a similar sort of result tonight.
It was 4-1 to the champions at Firhill although the Jags gave it a good go. The Hoops as usual are extremely short at 2-13 at Ladbrokes and backers of handicaps will be put off their last two results – 1-0 v Hamilton and 2-1 v Dundee – and the best bet could be to wait for line-ups before having a punt with suggestions Rodgers could blood a couple of kids.
Brendan Rodgers's side continue to swat aside allcomers but the goals aren't coming as freely with some fringe men involved – unless your name is Leigh Griffiths.
The Scotland striker has netted in his last three games after being restored to the side including the openers against Accies and Dundee.
Griffiths is likely to keep his place tonight and I'll be on him at 3-1 with McBookie to net first again.
It was Stuart Armstrong who broke the deadlock at Firhill before completing a double. He is worth a look at 15-8 with bet365 although he will return the armband to Scott Brown who served a one-match ban against Dundee.
Both teams to score pays 6-5 at Betfred and Paddy Power and Celtic to win with both scoring is 14-5 at William Hill.
If you fancy Celtic -2 as it was last time out at Firhill you can have 11-10 at Coral. Celtic -1 is 4-9 at Coral.
