St Mirren vs Celtic LIVE score and goal updates from Premiership clash in Paisley

Beating Rangers is becoming a habit for St Mirren this season.

But Celtic are different kettle of fish entirely and it's the champions who stand between Stephen Robinson's men and another three points this afternoon.

The Hoops bounced back from their slip up against Hibs last Saturday by putting Aberdeen to the sword in midweek. Saints took the lead at Tynecastle but ended p on the wrong end of a 3-1 defeat after the Jambos got their act together.

Killian Philipps was lucky to stay on the park after his straight red for flattening Jamie McCart was downgraded to a yellow and the hosts will be hoping he makes the most of his availability this afternoon.

Daizen Maeda is the man of the moment as far as the champions are concerned. He bagged a brace in midweek after being denied one by VAR in the capital and is the biggest danger from a Buddies perspective.

Not that Celtic are short of those, however. Jota, Nicolas Kuhn and even Callum McGregor this season are proving to be difference makers as Brendan Rodgers demands standards stay high despite a 13 point gap at the top of the table.

Greg Taylor returns to the matchday squad after missing the midweek 5-1 thrashing of Aberdeen. January signing Jeffrey Schlupp has slotted in with ease in recent weeks and some fans are already urging the club to sign the out-of-contract Crystal Palace veteran on a permanent deal. But having only played a bit-part role at Selhurst Park in the first half of the season, Rodgers could manage his minutes as the 32-year-old gets fully up to speed. That could see Taylor restored to the starting line-up

Predicted Celtic XI: Schmeichel; Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Trusty, Taylor; McGregor,
