RONNY DEILA is 2-1 with McBookie and BetVictor to collect the Treble in his first season but it's easy to forget his side remain locked in a title fight with Aberdeen and Dundee United.
Celtic are incredibly short at a best 1-20 at William Hill to retain their crown and to do so will want to pick up maximum points from their two games in hand on their closest rivals.
One of them is tonight at Partick Thistle and the Hoops have won five out of five against the Jags since their return to the top flight.
There have been 6-0 and 5-1 thrashings in two of the last three meetings and it's difficult to see the leaders slipping up.
Celtic are no bigger than 1-3 with McBookie but should cover the minus one handicap if the Jags defend as poorly as they did against Inverness in the Cup. That pays 10-11 with bet365.
Kris Commons is injured so there could be a start for Stuart Armstrong or Gary Mackay-Steven after their switches from Dundee United on transfer deadline day.
Leigh Griffiths has been the club's main man with goals against Rangers and Dundee and is 9-2 at Betfred to score first for the third game running.

over 40 pts on card index 3.5
over 2.5 goals and over 30 pts card index pays 3.5
Griffiths first scorer 4.5 .
that’s my three bets on the game .
Pretty solid bet Mr F on it like a rash
I’m not convinced by Celtic this season. I think they due a defeat.
Partick been unlucky
I fancy jags 9/1
Kenny, Celtic have won seven in a row without conceding – what more can they do? Thistle should have been 3 or 4 down to ICT at the weekend going by reports. It’s Celtic for me although they’ll miss Commons.
Locked in a title fight?? :) :)
Wait til we get pumped out Europe then the league will be won by 15+ points, the teams just coming along nicely plus GMS and Armstrong still to play, Lustig out too and for Inter next week and that’s a big miss
I went to watch the Jags v Inverness on Saturday and they were woefully poor. Even worse than them, though, was the pitch. In a right mess and completely bare in places. Wont suit Celtic. Would still expect them to cover the handicap though.
Kenny, if you haven’t been convinced by Celtic lately you haven’t been watching them. They have been excellent since Kilmarnock, perhaps excepting Ross County although they just dug in like their loves depended on it. Celtic have run over every other team and very convincingly
I can totally understand where Kenny is coming from. Celtic have been playing great but they have went on a couple of good runs this season then have fell back down to Earth with a bang so the jags nicking something wouldn’t surprise me if I’m honest.
This is the first good run and confidence is booming at the moment.
With a fit and inform, Gordon, Denayer, Virgil, Brown and Leigh Griffiths you’d be near mad to think Celtic will drop points this evening.
Both Armstrong and GMS will be in tonight’s team.
Celtic -1
And Armstrong to score anytime.
Does anyone think the BTTS has a chance in this game? Celtic will score but not sure on Partick
