Celtic Season Ticket holders will be reunited with their cherished seats today for the first time in 17 months.
Back in March last year St Mirren also provided the opposition with a hat-trick from Leigh Griffiths ensuring a very comfortable home win.
The good news for St Mirren is that it is 50-50 whether Griffiths will make the bench today, the bad news is that Celtic have a new scoring hero who has a rapport with the fans as strong as the relationship he has with his team-mates.

Three weeks ago Kyogo was coming out of isolation and heading to Scotland for the first time, getting a 15 minute cameo in a depressing defeat at Tynecastle.
Today he’ll have the adulation of close to 60,000 fans willing him on to his seventh or more goal as a Celtic player.
Last season Celtic limped through a desperate, laboured campaign. The video clip above shows the extra edge that fans bring to games- its unlikely that they’ll be watching four consecutive home defeats ever again.
