Leigh Griffiths makes a surprise return to the Celtic side that can clinch the title against Hibs at Easter Road.

Moussa Dembele was in devastating form in the Hampden hammering of Sevco last Sunday but lifelong Hibby Griffiths comes into the side that can make it seven in a row with a win this afternoon.

Brendan Rosgers makes one other change to last week’s side with Jack Hendry replacing Mikael Lustig at right-back.

In December Celtic drew 2-2 at Easter Road despite being 2-0 up and in control of the match with 20 minutes left to play.

Neil Lennon’s side have given the hoops their toughest games of the season with two draws in the SPFL, a 1-0 win for Celtic in January and a 4-2 victory for Rodgers’ side in the semi-final of the Betfred Cup at Hampden in October.

CELTIC: Gordon; Hendry, Boyata, Ajer, Tierney; Brown, Ntcham; Forrest, Rogic, McGregor; Griffiths

SUBS: Bain, Simunovic, Roberts, Kouassi, Edouard, Sinclair, Musonda
