I don't know how Celtic beat Motherwell at third part.
I think Hearts will take care of Falkirk and if it is about goal difference, I think Hearts could get a few goals tonight.
Falkirk are not at their strongest and have recently taken to losing lots of goals.
Six against Rangers, three against Hibs.
The big problem for Celtic...
Jens Bertel Askew, Tamanda Maswanisi, all of the players that we know about.
There's maybe a problem in central defence for Motherwell, caused by Stephen Welsh being ineligible, caused by Paul McGinn being injured, but I'm trying to visualise in my mind...
How this very, very good Motherwell side lose to Celtic at Fair Park.
And I'm not seeing it.
When Dijon made a scored the overhead goal on Sunday against Rangers, it lifted the mood around Celtic.
The players, the fans, Martin O'Neill, it lifted it to a stellar height.
And that's the kind of optimism they take with them to Fir Park.
Martin has set the scene perfectly by saying, being the manager who lost there on Helicopter Sunday,
he said if he loses there tonight he's never going back and you can understand that the man's been living with Hurt for 21 years Hart's been living with Hurt for 40 years because of a big player called Albert Kidd and because of a day when Celtic won 5-0 in Paisley and took the title from Hart's grasp
The history, the subplots surrounding the two games tonight are incredible.
Everyone's entitled to their opinion, Howard, of course.
And where we do agree is on the subject of Martin O'Neill.
The Celtic fans may have a difficult relationship with the principal shareholder, Dermot Desmond, but it was Dermot Desmond who got rid of Brendan Rodgers and knew that he was going to bring in Martin O'Neill.
The huge, monumental mistake that Celtic made.
Was hiring Wilfred Nancy Before they brought Martin O'Neill back Had they not hired Wilfred Nancy We wouldn't be having this programme Because Celtic would be the champions And a while ago So Martin O'Neill has united A club Full of discord Between supporters And the hierarchy And he has galvanised A football team Who Don't forget Howard lost Eight league games this season so far Eight
