Ross County made history at Kilmarnock last weekend by recording three straight away wins in the top-flight for the first time ever.
But it’s back on home soil on Saturday as the in-form Staggies take on runaway leaders Celtic in the Highlands. Don Cowie’s men have rocketed 10 points clear of rock bottom St Johnstone after embarking on an impressive four-game unbeaten run – including victories on the road at Dundee, Aberdeen and Rugby Park. And they’ll seek to extend their streak by pulling off an upset against the Hoops in Dingwall.
Celts moved 15 points clear over Rangers during the week after getting the job done against Dundee United, while Philippe Clement’s flops stumbled at Dens Park. The title race is well and truly over but Brendan Rodgers won’t allow complacency to creep into his team as the champions continue their quest for a Treble. Celtic thrashed County 5-0 at Parkhead in November but had to grind out a hard-fought 2-1 win in Dingwall just a month previous.
