Celtic vs Ross County match preview
It’s Flag Day at Celtic Park, as the hosts begin the defence of their Scottish Premiership title.
Last season, the Hoops claimed the eighth treble of the club’s history, five of which have come in the last seven seasons, with Ange Postecoglou securing a back-to-back titles.
The beloved Australian has since left for Tottenham, with Brendan Rodgers reappointed, four and a half years on from his own departure for the Premier League.
Rodgers won seven trophies out of seven during his first spell in charge, hoping to continue that streak this season.
The Bhoys have won their last seven meetings with Ross County, scoring 20 goals, with an emphatic margin of victory likely to start to season.
As for the Staggies, they only preserved their Premiership status by the skin of their teeth.
Back in June, 160 minutes into their two-legged play-off final against Partick Thistle, the Highlanders were 3-0 down and surely set to drop into the Championship.
Nevertheless, Ross County pulled off the most unlikely comeback in SPFL history, pulling it back to 3-3, equalising in stoppage time, before surviving via a dramatic penalty shootout in Dingwall.
Fair to say, Malky Mackay’s men will be hoping to stay up automatically this time.
Unlike Celtic, who’s competitive campaign commences here, Ross County have already played four matches this season.
They accumulated ten points in the League Cup group phase, beating Stranraer, Morton and Edinburgh City, before a shootout defeat to Kelty Hearts last weekend, but this wasn’t enough to deny them top spot.
Nevertheless, anything other than an emphatic victory at Parkhead would be a major surprise.
