Celtic have had a flying start to the Scottish domestic campaign. Hoping to build momentum after last season's double, Brendan Rodgers' side have won the first three matches. In fact, with pre-season considered, the Hoops haven't lost in the last 20 games. An incredible record, which the manager will hope to continue.

Next up for Celtic is a return to Premiership action, as they face St Mirren away from home. The hosts won their opening game of the season but have since lost three on the trot across all competitions.

Still, they sit sixth in the league table. Also, they will be eager to get a result against the champions, so they shouldn't be overlooked.

Without further ado, here is our St. Mirren vs Celtic preview, as we move closer to kick-off. It will also have key information such as team news, predicted lineups and how to watch the match on TV.
