Scottish Premiership resumes: What impact has international break had & how will Hibs’ Marink Reedijk fare?

Celtic have lost their past three fixtures in all competitions, including league and cup losses to Rangers.

However, Martin O’Neill’s defending champions are two points clear at the top of the table and their Sunday trip to face Motherwell at Fir Park has a bit of a dual-focus.

Stopping the rot and getting back to winning ways will be the priority, but the match also serves as a warm-up for Thursday’s Europa League trip to face the formidable Benfica in Lisbon.

Celtic meet a Motherwell side not in great form themselves, having also lost three on the bounce. Losses to Rangers, Aberdeen and Dundee have brought what was an encouraging start to the season to a bit of a halt for Alfred Johansson’s side.

However, one positive result changes all that and the Steelmen certainly caused Celtic problems last season.

It could be a fascinating watch in Lanarkshire.
