We said: Celtic 2-0 Hibernian

 Celtic cruised to a dominant win over Hibs last week and would have won by a greater margin had they not squandered a number of decent chances. The Hoops will be regarded as favourites once again on Sunday and even if Rodgers decides to makes few changes, his side should have few problems claiming a routine victory. Read more.
