Celtic will host Aberdeen at Celtic Park on Saturday in the final round of the 2022-23 Scottish Premiership campaign.
The home side have struggled for results in the league of late but have since secured the Premiership title and are looking forward to the Cup final next month. They were beaten 4-2 by Conference League-chasing Hibernian in their last game and had looked good for the win before a Daizen Maeda red card scuppered their chances.
Celtic sit atop the league table with 96 points from 37 games. They will be looking to close out their successful Premiership campaign with a win in front of their home fans.
Aberdeen have enjoyed a largely solid campaign and are now looking forward to the European playoffs next season. They returned to winning ways last time out with a 3-0 win over 10-man St. Mirren featuring a free-kick from Liverpool loanee Leighton Clarkson and a brace from team captain Graeme Shinnie.
