Dundee United and Celtic will lock horns on matchday five of the Scottish Premiership on Sunday.
The hosts suffered a 3-0 defeat to St. Mirren at home last weekend, thanks to Curtis Main's brace and Alex Greive's injury time winner. Celtic, meanwhile, are coming off a 2-0 home win over Hearts, with Kyogo Furuhashi and Georgios Giakoumakis scored in either half for the defending champions.
The win helped the capital side maintain their 100% start to the season. They lead the way at the summit with 12 points garnered from four games. Dundee, meanwhile, are second from bottom and have one point to show for their efforts after four outings.
