Celtic need one point to seal an eighth straight title but Aberdeen boss Derek McIness wants to ruin their title party.
McIness serves a one-match ban for gesturing to Celtic fans who sang sectarian abuse at him during Aberdeen’s Scottish Cup semi-final defeat three weeks ago and will be in the stands for the upcoming match.
Celtic boss Neil Lennon has already seen his side miss out on the chance to seal the title and Aberdeen boss is looking to ruin their title party once again.
He said: “
Celtic clearly have plenty motivation to win this game but they probably would have expected to have won the league by now. They’ve still got work to do. They will win the league, it’s just a matter of when. We just need to make sure, for our own sake, they can win the league elsewhere because it would mean we’ve picked up a very important three points. I understand there will be a lot more focus on it, a lot more scrutiny because of the consequence that if Celtic don’t lose, they’ll win the league. I can honestly say it hasn’t come into our thinking.”
