How to watch Aberdeen v Celtic
Celtic will look to close the gap on Premiership leaders Hearts when they travel to Aberdeen to play their game in hand on Wednesday night.
The defending champions are playing catch-up in this season’s title race amid a tumultous season that has resulted in seven league defeats and three managerial changes.
Currently eight points adrift in third place, Martin O’Neill’s side can move above Rangers into second place and to within five points of Hearts with a victory at Pittodrie.
Celtic will go into the game in positive mood after coming from two goals down to claim a 2-2 draw with Rangers at Ibrox on Sunday.
They face a struggling Aberdeen side who are languishing down in eighth place in the table with only one victory in their last 12 league games.
Peter Leven is currently in charge of the first-team on an interim basis as the search for a successor to Jimmy Thelin, who was sacked in January, remains ongoing.
Celtic claimed a 2-0 victory on their last visit to the Granite City in August, and also defeated the Dons at Parkhead in October with two late goals sealing a 3-1 victory under former boss Wilfried Nancy.
