Celtic opened the scoring against Aberdeen within two minutes after Callum McGregor guided the ball in with a fine strike. The Celtic skipper benefited from a knockdown from Jota to fire the Scottish Champions into the lead.

McGregor, who scored the winner the last time the teams met, will be hoping his side can record a convincing win before the League Cup Final next weekend at Hampden.

It has been a fast start from Ange’s team, who have created a number of openings. It could be a long afternoon for the visitors from Pittodrie.
