Celtic picked up a 2-1 win over Rangers in the Old Firm Derby on Sunday and with that, the Bhoys have one hand on the Premiership title.

Right now, Celtic are 13 points clear at the top of the table which means it is impossible for the Teddy Bears to catch them.

But right now, some Celtic fans are sweating over the fitness over left-back Kieran Tierney.

Kieran Tierney has been one of the best players for the Hoops this season but when the youngster was taken off with 20 minutes left on the clock many feared that he had suffered an injury.




The 21-year-old had just returned back from an injury and many people claimed that he could once again be sidelined for a couple of more games.

But Celtic have since cleared all those doubts stating that Kieran Tierney is ok and taking him off was just a precaution.

This means the defender will surely be involved in the matchday squad and there’s a possibility that Ryan Christie could also make a comeback.

Assistant manager John Kennedy said(as reported): “Kieran is OK. He had been out for a period and was cramping up a bit so we don’t see any issues there.




“Dedryck seemed to get some form of a hamstring injury which will be assessed, so we will see the extent of that.




“There was nothing too major away from Dedryck. We have more bodies coming back, Ryan Christie is on the way back, Filip Benkovic is on the way back, and (Olivier) Ntcham and (Tom) Rogic got some game time.”

Celtic will take on St Mirren at the Paisley Stadium on Wednesday and Neil Lennon will be looking at another comfortable three points.
