The weekend SPFL action gets under way on Friday night when Partick Thistle welcome Ladbrokes Premiership leaders Celtic to Firhill.

The match is live on BT Sport, kick-off 7.45pm, and is the first part of a December double header - the teams meet again at Parkhead on Tuesday December 20.

Celtic go into the game on the back of a 1-1 draw with Manchester City in the Champions League and having won a thrilling match 4-3 at Motherwell last weekend.

Brendan Rodgers' side have earned 37 points out of a possible 39 so far while Alan Archibald's men are above bottom club Inverness CT on goal difference after a 1-1 draw at Hamilton last time out.

You have to go back to May 1995 for Partick Thistle's last win over Celtic - a 3-1 victory at Hampden with goals from Roddy Grant and a Wayne Foster double.
