Leigh Griffiths is back to lead the line for Celtic today away to Hearts.

The Scotland striker has been left on the bench in recent weeks but will get the chance to prove his worth in front of fans who loathe him.

Griffiths scored his first ever Celtic goal at Tynecastle in February 2014 and makes no secret of what it means to a Hibs fan to score in Gorgie.

Despite losing two bad goals last week away to Hibs Dedryck Boyata and Jozo Simunovic remain in central defence with Scott Brown partnered by Olivier Ntcham in central midfield.

With Aberdeen beating Hibs yesterday Celtic’s lead at the top of the table has been cut back to just two points but three wins in a week over Hearts, Partick Thistle and Derek McInnes’ side will give Celtic a healthy 11 point lead at the top of the table.

CELTIC: Gordon; Lustic, Simunovic, Boyata, Tierney; Brown, Ntcham; Forrest, McGregor, Sinclair; Griffiths

SUBS: De Vries, Armstrong, Ajer, Dembele, Hayes, Edouard, Kouassi.
