Celtic 2 Livingston 1 as Hoops restore nine point advantage over Rangers - 3 things we learned

Celtic have restored their nine point lead over Rangers at the Premiership summit after victory over Livingston.

The Hoops had the bulk of possession and the chances throughout this one but the scoreline was a lot closer than Ange Postecoglou will have wanted with the champions running out 2-1 winners on the night. Liel Abada - the only change from the win over Aberdeen at the weekend - proved his selection was spot on with an excellent display.

The games come thick and fast for the Hoops with St Johnstone making the trip to Glasgow's east end on Christmas Eve before they make the journey to the capital to face Hibs at Easter Road four days later. It's then a blockbuster Old Firm showdown with Rangers on January 2. Here are three things we learned from Celtic's win over Livingston.
