Chris Sutton will wait until Friday to reveal his derby day score prediction.

The former Celtic striker will be on duty for BT Sport with their Friday Night Scottish Football Extra programme ahead of the Hibs v Dundee United match.

Sutton hasn’t made many bad calls this season with his verdict ahead of the Glasgow derby eagerly awaited.

Before the first clash of the season between the two clubs he infuriated Ibrox fans by comparing Mark Warburton to Ronny Deila. Celtic won 5-1 in Warbo’s one and only visit to Celtic Park.

While other pundits like Kris Boyd have attempted to salvage something from that match Sutton hasn’t wavered as the gap between the two clubs grows on a weekly basis.

Celtic go into the match with a 33 point lead over the Ibrox club knowing that even a draw will kill off the #goingfor55 campaign.

Brendan Rodgers side require seven more points to clinch the title although that is dependent on Aberdeen winning their matches against Motherwell, Hearts and Dundee.
