Celtic collapsed at the feet of Hibs in a shock 4-2 loss at Easter Road on Wednesday evening.
The Hoops entered this one on the back of two games without a win, having lost 3-0 to Rangers at Ibrox before stumbling to a 2-2 draw with St Mirren at Celtic Park over the weekend. Spirits were still high, but the Hoops came out struggling when Elie Youan had a few chances to put the hosts ahead, though he failed to capitalise.
Celtic woke up somewhat, with Liel Abada missing an absolute sitter to put them 1-0 up. Their dominance paid off; Callum McGregor was fouled in the box just before the break, and with Reo Hatate tucking away the penalty calmly to give the Hoops the lead, the finishing line was in sight.
