They’ve won five on the trot, and if they’re to win the league without relying on anyone else, they’ll need to make it seven.

The sixth win must come against Motherwell when the Hoops travel there on Wednesday.

They’ve beaten Rangers and drawn with Hearts in the split – they’ll be no easy opponent, that’s for sure.

They will be looking to get a win too, to secure fourth place, with Hibs still able to catch them.

It’s set to be a nervy game on Wednesday night, but it won’t be shown on Sky Sports. They’ve opted for Hearts vs Falkirk, and will show the goals in the Celtic match.

And the SFA have named the officials who will oversee the match at Fir Park.

John Beaton, who was on VAR on Sunday, will be the man in the middle. In the VAR room is Andrew Dallas. Sean Carr will be assisting Dallas while David McGeachie and Jonathan Bell will be running the lines. 

A must-win match for the Hoops on Wednesday.

Hearts’ final home match of the season vs Falkirk kicks off at the same time.

It’s a potentially decisive set of fixtures for Celtic this week.
