As if we're nearing the middle of March and Celtic are only top by one point

If Partick beat Celtic tomorrow, it could really be up for grabs

http://www.theguardian.com/football...ottish-10-things-to-look-out-for-this-weekend

Mathias Pogba, older brother of Paul, has scored just once for Partick Thistle in 21 appearances this season but when the ball dropped to him in the 68th minute against Aberdeen on Tuesday, the striker had an opportunity to double his tally and double Thistle’s lead on the night. Instead, the Dons’ Scott Brown made a magnificent save and Aberdeen would score two in the next eight minutes to seal a 2-1 win and close the gap on leaders Celtic to one point at the top of the Scottish Premiership. An opportunity missed in more ways than one but when Celtic visit Firhill on Saturday, they can expect the same stiff test that Aberdeen endured. Thistle might lie eighth in the Scottish Premiership but Tuesday aside, they have won four of their last five at home and will relish the chance to right the Aberdeen wrongs and stick it to their Glasgow neighbours. They just need someone to finish the chances: if Pogba can channel a bit of form from his brother and Aberdeen get the better of Kilmarnock, Celtic could well find themselves bumped off the top of the table by Saturday evening.
