Celtic face Dundee United on Saturday afternoon as Brendan Rodgers’ side go for four in a row. Celtic have had to wait for the opportunity to secure the title over the last few weeks but have their opportunity to do so when they face Jim Goodwin’s Dundee United.

Back in 2008, Gordon Strachan’s team secured 3IAR with a dramatic title win in Tayside.
