Brendan Rodgers has admitted that Celtic have to work on the defensive side of their game.

After dominating for over an hour against Hibs the hoops lost two goals within four minutes and suddenly had to start scrapping to hold on for a point.

It was the fifth draw of the season which contrasts sharply with last season when Celtic had only dropped two points as they pushed clear at the top of the Premiership table.

At the moment Celtic have a five point advantage plus a game in hand with Rodgers determined to iron out the problems at the back.

Rodgers will get an opportunity to work on his defence when they take on Hamilton Accies on Wednesday night.

On Sunday Hearts are likely to provide a tougher test when Celtic visit Tynecastle- the scene of last season’s opening match and title clincher when the hoops won 5-0 in April.
