Brendan Rodgers finds himself in an intriguing situation at Celtic, with the perception being that he is doing a poor job at the defending champions.
In all competitions, though, Celtic are unbeaten in 11 matches and have won nine of those fixtures, albeit several via late winning goals.
That was the case on Sunday as the Glasgow giants overturned a half-time deficit at Motherwell to run out 3-1 victors, scoring twice in added-on time.
Such heroics in the closing stages was the difference between trailing Rangers by two points, rather than four, and it keeps the pressure on their rivals when they have looked far more convincing than Celtic.
Although Celtic will welcome a return to familiar territory, they have dropped points in two of their last five league fixtures at Celtic Park.
From Dundee’s perspective, they have been inconsistent throughout the 2023-24 campaign, never winning more than two games in a row all season.

Victories over St Johnstone and Ross County put them in a position where that streak could be ended when they faced Hibernian at Easter Road at the weekend.

Tony Docherty’s side make the trip to Glasgow having already suffered two 3-0 defeats to Celtic earlier in the season – the most recent occurring on Boxing Day.
