Celtic manager Neil Lennon has warned his side of the threat that Livingston carry ahead of their top-flight clash today.
The Hoops currently sit at the top of the Scottish Premiership, one point clear of arch-rivals Rangers.
Lennon is keen to go into the international break at the top of the table but he knows Livingston will make life difficult for his players. As quoted on Sky Sports, he said:
The game is dangerous. It is a difficult tie, Livingston away.
I think we played them once there last year and drew 0-0. We know that goalscoring opportunities are at a premium.
They are a great example of clubs with a good spirit, who are well organised with hungry players. They are a real success story of the last four or five seasons.
They had a great year last year, consolidated their position in the Premiership comfortably and they have made a decent start again.
Is this sensible from Lennon?

Absolutely. The last thing that anyone associated with Celtic wants at this moment in time is complacency.
Livingston already proved that they can frustrate the champions by earning a point against them in the same fixture last season, so this will give them extra confidence going into the game.
By publicly warning his side of the threat posed by Livingston, it makes the players approach the game with a more serious attitude and instils the desire to come away with a victory.
