CELTIC take on Hearts for the second time this season when they square up at Tynecastle in this evening’s crucial Premiership encounter.
New Bhoys Arne Engels and Luke McCowan swept in the goals that gave the champions a 2-0 victory at Parkhead in September.
Those were the first strikes for the Hoops double-act who joined Brendan Rodgers’ squad within hours of each other on deadline day.
Engels was performing in the Bundesliga with Augsburg and McCowan at Dundee the last time Celtic played at the Edinburgh venue – and lost 2-0 in highly controversial circumstances in March.
