Celtic predicted XI vs Kilmarnock with Reo Hatate out as Rangers derby win edges title glory closer

Celtic will be looking to stay on course for the title with a repeat of their last visit to Rugby Park.

The Hoops haven't been to Ayrshire since late August as they take on a Derek McInnes side desperate to avoid the drop. It was a sizzling 5-0 hammering in the sunshine the last time Postecoglou's men faced off with Kilmarnock on their turf and Celtic will be hoping for something similar on Sunday. It comes after they defeated rivals Rangers 3-2 in the Old Firm derby to take a step closer to the title.

There was one notable absence for Postecoglou in the derby ding-dong with top star Reo Hatate being forced out. Matt O'Riley was more than a solid deputy on the day, while recently returning Aaron Mooy may have felt he had more to offer.
