Celtic will welcome Livingston to Celtic Park for a matchday seven game in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday.
The hosts are coming off a harrowing 3-0 away defeat at home to Real Madrid in their UEFA Champions League opener. All three goals came after the break, with Eden Hazard scoring and providing an assist to guide the defending champions to a comfortable win.
Livingston, meanwhile, claimed maximum points in a 1-0 home win against Hearts in league action last weekend. Cristian Montano's 28th-minute goal was enough to separate the two teams.
Celtic will look to keep their 100% record in the league intact, having won all six games so far to hold a five-point lead at the summit. Livingston are seventh in the standings and have nine points to show for their efforts after six games.
