Aberdeen Slip: Celtic’s Huge Tynecastle Chance

Celtic head into tonight’s clash against Hearts at Tynecastle with the chance to finally create some distance between themselves and Aberdeen in the Premiership table. The two sides have been level on points, but Aberdeen’s earlier 2-1 defeat against St Mirren in Paisley has opened the door for Brendan Rodgers’ side to move ahead.

The Dons’ recent form, including a draw at Celtic Park, has kept them comPetitive at the top, but today’s slip-up highlights the unpredictable nature of the league. Celtic must remain focused and avoid any similar setbacks as they prepare for the typically challenging atmosphere of Tynecastle under the lights.

Hearts may not be in their best form this season, but Tynecastle has long been a tough venue for visiting sides. The intensity of the home crowd and the narrow pitch will demand composure and control from the Hoops.

Rodgers and his team are unbeaten in the league and will be determined to maintain that record while taking advantage of this opportunity to set the pace. If they can rise to the occasion, Celtic will take a crucial step forward in their title defence.

Elsewhere it finished Rangers 1-1 Dundee Utd, but that doesn’t really concern Celtic.
