Pittodrie Stadium, Aberdeen
Kick Off 2pm, Live on Setanta Sports

In case you didn't know, due to the farce that is the Scottish Premier League, ICT are ground-sharing with Aberdeen at Pittodrie, due to their stadium not having enough seats. Except for next season though, when it will have enough seats, even though they're not building any more. Confused? Who cares, let's talk Celtic.
We can take great delight in the fact that Bobo Balde returns to the Celtic squad. Some of our defending was shambolic last week at Rugby Park and certainly missed the big man.
It was announced today that Chris Sutton is out of the game, John Hartson has also picked up a knock and is doubtful for the game. Sutton's injury is more serious though, and he may miss out on next week's Old Firm game.
This should see Henri Camara getting his first start for Celtic, and he will be partnered by either Aiden McGeady or Craig Beattie.
Celtic end tickets are on public sale at the Pools Office. We have basically been allocated as many tickets as we wish, as Inverness v Dunfermline last week was a record low SPL attendance - not even 2,000 turned up. Tomorrow, though, is their big day out and a few more may turn up.
Our defence will be dodgy but we will score goals. Can't see anything other than a Celtic victory tomorrow.
Hail Hail!
Come On The Hoops Prediction: ICT 1-3 Celtic
