The Scottish Premiership title race continues to warm up as the season approaches the business end and leaders Celtic will bid to maintain pole position at the top of the table against an in-form Livingston side.

Hide AdBoth clubs know there is very little margin for error in the title race and Celtic bounced back to winning ways against St Mirren on Wednesday night after being held to a frustrating goalless draw at Hibernian last weekend.
Celtic have suffered just three league defeats this season, the last of which came back in September.
However, the Tony Macaroni Arena has proven somewhat of a bogey ground for Celtic in recent years, having suffered a defeat and two draws on their previous three visits to the West Lothian venue.
This encounter promises to be a similarly stern test with Livingston undefeated in their previous five league matches and sitting in fourth place.

Hide AdDavid Martindale’s beat the Parkhead giants 1-0 earlier this season with Andrew Shinnie netting the only goal of the game before playing out a stalemate in their previous meeting.
A 4-0 thrashing of bottom side Dundee at Dens Park last weekend was followed by a late 2-1 win over Dundee United in midweek to ensure Livi head into this contest in terrific form.
It would be a remarkable achievement if Martindale, operating on the lowest playing budget in the top-flight, can guide his team to a top-four finish and European football next season.
